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”.
