1st International Conference on the Impact of Lightweight Structures and Materials

The conference is planned to be a forum for scientists, researchers and engineers, from all over the world, to exchange ideas and experience on the behavior and modelling of materials, safety and design of structures with respect to high strain-rate, impact and blast loading in particular.
The list of topics includes but is not limited to:

• Material characterization (all materials!) including failure
• Structural failure, energy absorbing systems and crashworthiness
• Vehicle safety (on ground, air/space, water)
• Impact biomechanics
• Ballistic impact
• Experimental techniques
• Theoretical models
• Numerical analysis

• Detailed program (688 KB)
• Congress web site
