The 5th Biennial International Conference on Experimental Solid Mechanics (X-Mech 2020)
The 5th Biennial International Conference on Experimental Solid Mechanics held at Iran University of Science and Technology on Feb. 18-19, 2020. The Conference was organized by the Center of Excellence in Experimental Solid Mechanics and Dynamics affiliated to the School of Mechanical Engineering of IUST. Professor Mahmood Shokrieh is the Chair of the conference.
The objective of the conference was to establish a forum for exchanging ideas in the field of experimental solid mechanics. The focus of the Conference is on different aspects of the state of the art in experimental solid mechanics. The First International Conference on Experimental Solid Mechanics and Dynamics (X-Mech 2012) held in the School of Mechanical Engineering. The Conference successfully brought together both engineers and theoretical methods/approaches to address the experimental researches in Solid Mechanics.
The Conference focused on the state of the art in automotive, aerospace, piping, marine and civil structures, bio-composites, and micro and nanocomposites.
Scholars from the Sahand University of Technology and Imperial College London attended the Conference as keynote speakers.
There were two keynote speeches for this conference in Feb. 18, presented by Prof. Behzad Pourabbas from Sahand University of Technology, Iran, and Prof. Kamran Nikbin from Imperial College, London. The subject for the former one was “Microfluidic Devices, Promises and New Opportunities for Advanced Materials” and the subject of the latter one was “An Integrated Approach to a Fracture Mechanic-Based Structural Integrity Using a Numerical and Experimental Research Methodology”.
Also, two workshops were held during Feb. 19, presented by Prof. Nikbin from Imperial College, London and Prof. Hamid Ahmadian from Iran University of Science and Technology, Iran. The subject for the former one was “Static and Cyclic and Hot Stress Corrosion Cracking Assessment and Modelling” and the subject of the latter one was “Nonlinear Joint Model Updating in Assembled Structures”. |

Jerzy Wisniewski Meeting in School of Railway Engineering |
 |
|
| Post date: 2019/11/26 | |
|
Meeting at Iran University of Science Technology (IUST) held on 13 November 2019

At the invitation of IUST Assistant Professor Ms M. Khadem Sameni, who participated in the “nextstation” Conference, Jerzy Wisniewski, Director of the Fundamental Values Department, met the IUST management and presented UIC’s activities in the areas of education and training.
The presentation of the Talent and TrainRail projects was received with interest. The Iran University of Technology will contact UIC HQ and the Regional office in Teheran to specify the fields of interest. Above all, they declared a willingness to join the TrainRail project. They will offer their education and research facilities to be used for future cooperation and promoted their experience in developing programmes focusing on vocational training.
Within the University there is a dedicated faculty for railway engineering which could be a direct partner for UIC projects.

UITP AWARDS
************************************************************************
The UITP Awards showcase ambitious and innovative public transport projects undertaken in the last two years in cities and regions around the world. These should position public transport as the backbone of urban and local mobility solutions.
Key award criteria for the Awards
The UITP Award categories recognise and reward ambitious and innovative practices in five key dimensions that companies and organisations need to address to put in place sustainable urban and local mobility systems. These are:
Innovation: The novelty of an idea, taking into consideration the urban/social dimension of transport, digitalisation, energy efficiency and entrepreneurship
Contribution: Assisting the sector ambition of increasing the public transport market share worldwide
Transferability: The potential for the project to be replicated in another city/region
Partnership: Formal or informal consortia of partners and stakeholders that jointly submit an application, demonstrating an integrated approach to mobility issues
Relevance to the specific Award Category
The Call for Submissions is open from 22 January and will be closed on 8 March 2019. For more information, you may find here the description of award categories or access the UITP website.

Iran-Germany Science Day
On the occasion of Iran-Germany Science Day, School of Railway Engineering hosted two events:
- “Transportation and Logistic Session” on the 27th of Feb. from 15:30-17:00. At this event, Dr. Moini the head of Siemens in Tehran presented a speech on “Strategic Partnership of Siemens with Universities”.
It was followed by a presentation from Ms. Denise Kaske, head of International Cooperation of Fraunhofer Institute on how they support industry-university collaboration and research.
The last talk was given by Dr. Udo Krause, Vice Rector for Research from TU Dresen Technical University that explained about their international cooperation, strategies and activities in the field of transportation.
The audience which included some faculty members and transportation experts discussed different methods and ideas for collaboration.
Also, Dr. Krause opened the possibility for further scientific collaboration between Dresden Technical University and Iran University of Science and Technology that can happen by working on a Memorandum of Understating with the School of Railway Engineering.
- The Second event is organized by the cooperation of the School of Railway Engineering, TÜV SÜD Rail and METAFAN Tadbir Azin Farzan Engineering Co. in which “Modernization of Signaling System” workshop is discussed by Mr. Björn Silberberg. Over 100 experts from various railway companies including Iranian Railways registered to participate.
