Structural Integrity

The Structural Integrity book series is a high level academic and professional series publishing research on all areas of Structural Integrity. It promotes and expedites the dissemination of new research results and tutorial views in the structural integrity field. The Series publishes research monographs, professional books, handbooks, edited volumes and textbooks with worldwide distribution to engineers, researchers, educators, professionals and libraries. This series is managed by team members of the ESIS/TC12 technical committee. Topics of interested include but are not limited to:

- Structural integrity

- Structural durability

- Degradation and conservation of materials and structures

- Dynamic and seismic structural analysis

- Fatigue and fracture of materials and structures

- Risk analysis and safety of materials and structural mechanics

- Fracture Mechanics

- Damage mechanics

- Analytical and numerical simulation of materials and structures

- Computational mechanics

- Structural design methodology

- Experimental methods applied to structural integrity

- Multiaxial fatigue and complex loading effects of materials and structures

STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY AWARD OF MERIT

Regulations and Eligibility Criteria:

Every researcher can submit a proposal to the Awards Committee of the Structural Integrity – Series until November annually. The proposals should be submitted to Dr. Mayra Castro, Senior Editor, Springer (Heidelberg), e-mail: mayra.castro@springer.com

The proposal has to be seconded by another researcher, however, from a country other than that of the proposer (and should be from a different country than that of the candidate).

The proposal shall include a detailed justification of the candidate, usually covering one to two pages. It shall include a detailed CV of the candidate and a list of his/her five most important publications on the structural integrity area.

The Structural Integrity award of Merit will be announced each year.

The awards committee is composed by the Editorial Advisory Board and Editors of the Structural Integrity - Series, and two people outside the Book Series selected for just one year.

The winners of the Structural Integrity Award of Merit have been:

2018: Francesco Iacoviello (University of Cassino and Southern Lazio)

2019: Krishnaswamy Ravi-Chandar (University of Texas at Austin)

2020: Filippo Berto (Norwegian University of Science and Technology)
