Description
NDTMS-2011 International Symposium on Nondestructive Testing of Materials and Structures will be organized on May 15-18, 2011 in Istanbul, Turkey. The meeting will be hosted by Istanbul Technical University. The Organizing Committee is delighted to invite you to the NDTMS-2011 and looks forward to welcoming you to this event.
Scope
The object of the symposium is to provide a forum of engineers, scientist, and professionals for the exchange of ideas and knowledge on nondestructive testing of materials and structures with applications in civil and other engineering fields. The symposium aims at focusing on current NDT methods and applications, and fostering ideas on future research and new developments.
Topics
The focus areas of the symposium will include:
- NDT methods for the characterization of materials and structures
General NDT methods, state of the art, recent developments, use of combined NDT methods, measurements and modeling techniques.
- NDT for material property characterization
Measurement and quantification of material properties including those of cementitious, metallic and composite materials for civil, and other engineering applications.
- NDT of civil infrastructures
Assessment, quantification, and case studies on buildings, bridges, dams, tunnels, foundations, pipes, and pile systems.
- NDT for early age concrete
Current and developing methods in the assessment of early age concrete properties
- Health monitoring of structures
Methods for continuous monitoring, remote sensing technologies, and wireless NDT. Existing and developing methods and case studies.
- NDT and evaluation of historic buildings and monuments
Assessment of historical structures and their foundations including masonry and composite systems. Methods and case studies.
