会议背景介绍: The infrastructure of human civilisation is perennially under threat from natural and man-made hazards, of which fire and blast are among the most destructive and frequent. These hazards are often also interdependent, where one may lead to the other, particularly in industrial environments. It is the aim of this conference to provide an international forum to regularly bring together leading researchers in these fields along with leading practitioners in order to meet the following main objectives:
Disseminate state-of-the-art knowledge and practice for dealing with both of these hazards either individually or collectively Provide a forum where students, researchers and practitioners in these fields may interact, network and learn from each other and promote best practice Researchers are afforded the opportunity of obtaining useful feedback on their research from their peers as well as from a strong contingent of leading practitioners in the field. Likewise industry participants will get the chance to inform researchers with the issues of greatest concern to them Over the long term it is expected that this conference will contribute in leading to a safer and more resilient built environment as well as enhanced safety in industrial environments, both on and off-shore. 征文范围及要求: The Programme will include several keynote and invited papers with the aim of highlighting the key issues and application areas in order to provide a broader overview and set the tone for the conference. Papers are expected to correspond to one of the following themes within the context of fire, blast and impact effects:
Characterisation of fire, blast and impact loading on structures Behaviour of structural materials at high temperatures and high strain rates including performance of protective materials Mechanics of material and structural damage including the analy-sis of failure and collapse mechanisms Modelling and simulation including coupled modelling methods Design of structures for improved resilience Strengthening, retrofit and repair Risk and uncertainty modelling & performance based engineering Safety of high risk facilities such as nuclear power plants Applications of sensing, AI and big data in infrastructure safety Exemplars of high-end design case studies in various industry sectors, both on and off-shore |
