NDTMS-2011 International Symposium on Nondestructive Testing of Materials and Structures 2011 will be held 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.
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, sensors and instrumentation, measurements, signal processing, modeling and imaging techniques.
- NDT for material and property characterization
- Measurement and quantification of material properties including those of cementitious, metallic (including metallurgical perspective), and composite materials for civil and other engineering applications.
- NDT of civil infrastructures
- Damage detection and quantification, condition assessment, life prediction, and case studies on civil infrastructure components such as 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 and monitoring of historical structures and their foundations including masonry and composite systems. Methods and case studies.
