Special Session on "Non-destructive Inspection Techniques for Composite Materials and Structures" within ICCS16 - Announce & Call for Papers

Dear Colleague,

 

Within the 16th International Conference on Composite Structures (ICCS16),
to be held in Porto, Portugal, in 28-30 June 2011 (www.fe.up.pt/~iccs16), we
are organizing the Special Session on “Non-destructive Inspection Techniques
for Composite Materials and Structures”.

The main objective of this special session is to promote a comprehensive
forum for discussion on techniques applied to non-destructive inspection of
composite materials and structures.

Due to your research activities in those fields, we would like to invite you
to submit your work and participate in the Special Session on
“Non-destructive Inspection Techniques for Composite Materials and
Structures”.

 

Topics (not limited to):

 

- Composite Materials and Structures Characterization using Non-destructive
Inspection Techniques;

- Damage Detection, Characterization and Sizing in Composite Materials and
Structures using Non-destructive Inspection Techniques;

- Applications of Non-destructive Inspection Techniques in Composite
Materials and Structures;

- Signal Processing and Analysis in Non-destructive Inspection of Composite
Materials and Structures;

- Image Processing and Analysis in Non-destructive Inspection of Composite
Materials and Structures;

- Pattern Recognition and Classification for Non-destructive Inspection of
Composite Materials and Structures;

- 3D Image Reconstruction from Non-destructive Inspection Data of Composite
Materials;

- Algorithms Development for Non-destructive Inspection of Composite
Materials and Structures;

- Software Development for Non-destructive Defect Detection and
Characterization in Composite Materials and Structures;

- Reliability of the Non-destructive Inspection Techniques in Composite
Materials and Structures.
