MATERIALS STRUCTURES SYSTEMS
Acireale Sicily Italy - June 8-13 2008
"Emboding Intelligence in Structures and Integrated Systems" will be among the relevant areas covered by CIMTEC 2008 - 3rd International Conference on Smart Materials, Structures and Systems to take place in Acireale, Sicily, Italy, June 8-13, 2008

The symposium "Emboding Intelligence in Structures and Integrated Systems" will highlight advances in adaptive materials and in novel sensor/actuator and micro systems, and their integration in mechatronic structures and systems of various complexities also including intelligent and flexible robotics. System level evaluation of smart structures, the interplay of actuation, sensing and processing capabilities, the ideation and numerical modelling and simulation of new actuation and sensing techniques for integrated systems, the analysis, design and testing of active/passive smart dynamic and static structural components and signal processing, together with micro and nano technology, control electronics and materials science involved in interfacing different materials and functions, will be among the scopes of this Symposium that requires multidisciplinary contributions by experts from materials science, theoretical and applied mechanics, electronics, electromechanics and manufacturing.
Solutions to new industrial and commercial applications that have well matured beyond the concept stage, reports on more traditional industrial systems where the incorporation of smart materials and integrated devices favours an enabling new capability or a very remarkable performance enhancement and/or cost reduction, and new ideas and directions for future developments will be among the relevant scopes of this Symposium.
Sessions Topics:
Session C-1 Smart materials, sensors/actuators and microsystems
Session C-2 Integration technologies
Session C-3 Smart structures and integrated systems
Session C-4 Ongoing and perspective application
Cimtec 2008 will gather together a large and qualified audience of materials scientists, physicists, chemists, biologists and engineers, as well as experts of a wide range of the most advanced and demanding research and application areas of smart materials and related technologies.
On the top of this premier event in materials, Sicily will offer its wonderful landscape and its immense, unique artistic heritage!
