Materials Mechanics, Characterization and Testing

This session focuses on understanding material behaviour through mechanical evaluation, characterization and testing. It covers strength, deformation, fatigue, fracture, wear, failure analysis, microscopy, spectroscopy, imaging, surface analysis, non-destructive testing and assessment of reliability or durability. 

Abstract Scope and Participation 

Experimental researchers, testing laboratories, engineers, computational specialists and industry professionals are invited to participate. Abstracts may discuss analytical methods, testing standards, structure–property relationships, performance evaluation and integrated approaches for identifying defects, improving quality and predicting material behaviour under service conditions.
