The 14th International Conference on Engineering Structural Integrity Assessment (ESIA14), in conjunction with the 2017 International Symposium on Structural Integrity (ISSI-2017), China, 16 and 17 May 2017, Manchester, UK

The fourteenth biennial International Conference on Engineering Structural Integrity Assessment in conjunction with the 2017 International Symposium on Structural Integrity will be held at the Manchester Conference Centre in Manchester, which is one of the most technologically historic and exciting cities in the United Kingdom, with one of the largest universities.

The ESIA14-ISSI2017 joint conference provides a special opportunity to offer a vehicle for exchange of views on how to characterise, analyse, predict and assess engineering structural integrity of plant, components and structures together with buildings and infrastructure.    It will allow an evaluation of progress and challenges in these areas to ensure that economic, safe and reliable operation is achieved for new design, and existing systems.

On this occasion the conference will be followed by a one day workshop designed to explore potential areas of collaboration with the Chinese delegates in areas of common interest.

Oral and poster presentations will allow sufficient time for follow-up discussions, friendly debate and relaxed participation.

The Conference will be held at the Manchester Conference Centre, Manchester, United Kingdom.
