Engineering Structural Integrity Assessment – Its Contribution to the Sustainable Economy

 

Engineering Sructural Integrity Assessment: Present Goals - Future Challenges 19-20 May 2009, Manchester, UK

This is one of a series of FESI conferences on the topic of Engineering Structural Integrity Assessment. The Conferences are now established as a major forum for dissemination and discussion amongst industrial, academic and regulatory bodies in this field. It addresses all aspects of this multi-disciplinary subject including the status of assessment technologies and methodologies in relation to operating plant, structures and components.

Theme

The continued safe and reliable operation of structures and components across industry sectors offers considerable economic advantages to manufacturers, operators, society at large. Engineering structural integrity currently plays a central role in this. In addition, engineering structural integrity will have a key role in the future developments that will be required for the design, manufacture and operation of new facilities by incorporating the lessons learned and applying the new techniques and methodologies.

This FESI Conference will be based around the theme of "Engineering Structural Integrity Assessment: present goals - future challenges" and will:

• examine current needs in terms of sustainable management concepts, strategies and methodologies, regulatory requirements, economic benefits and societal impact,
• address through the development and deployment of condition evaluation and assessment tools; integration into methodologies and their application to the current situation and future planning, both deterministically and probabilistically based; operational challenges of life cycle management for newly designed plant,
• consider case histories demonstrating the applicability to specific plant problems to the improved life management of existing and new structures and components (papers here will be particularly welcome),
• consider all major industry and business sectors, including energy, transport, process and civil engineering
