- Prof. Eason (Yi-Sheng) Chen, Nanyang Technological University Singapore (NTU)/The University of Sydney - Prof. Hisao Matsunaga, Kyushu University, Japan

- Dr. Moli Sanchez Laura, French Corrosion Institute, France - Dr. Evelin Barbosa de Mélo, McGill University, Canada - Prof. Tom Depover (ESIS TC21), Ghent University, Belgium

- Dr. Sriraman K. Rajagopalan, Canadian Nuclear Laboratories, Canada - Prof. Emilio Martínez Pañeda (ESIS TC21), University of Oxford, UK - Prof. Milos Djukic (ESIS TC21), University of Belgrade, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Serbia. This conference provides a forum for the global hydrogen embrittlement research and testing communities to meet and exchange ideas on the latest fundamental research, and advances in technology, and to consider engineering implications across all industrial sectors. - ESIS TC21 chair Milos B. Djukic is engaged in 2023/2024 as a Project advisor - External expert on the implementation of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) project entitled “Quality Infrastructure (QI) for Green Hydrogen: technical standards and quality control for the production and trade of renewable hydrogen”, topic: QI requirements for hydrogen (H2) pipelines ( LINK ). - ESIS TC21 chairs Milos B. Djukic, Tom Depover, Antonio Alvaro, and Emilio Martínez Pañeda are Project team members for preparation of Guide 21586, “Guidelines for Laboratory Corrosion Testing for Hydrogen“ by AMPP Standards Committees SC 26 “Carbon Capture, Alternative Fuels, and Energy Storage“ ( LINK ), Association for Materials Protection and Performance, AMPP ( LINK ), Houston, Texas, USA. This Project represents a great opportunity to initiate and strengthen future cooperation between AMPP - Association for Materials Performance and Protection and the Technical Committee “TC21 Hydrogen Embrittlement and Transport” of the European Structural Integrity Society (ESIS). ESIS TC21 chair Milos B. Djukic will provide an update on this AMPP/ESIS cooperation soon. - ESIS TC21 chair Milos B. Djukic is a co-chair of the 23 rd International ASTM/ESIS Symposium on Fatigue & Fracture Mechanics: Environmental Effects (44 th ASTM National Symposium on Fatigue & Fracture Mechanics: Environmental Effects) to be held from November 12-13, 2025 in Atlanta Marriott Marquis, Atlanta, GA, USA. The other co-chairs from the USA are Peter Bailey, Andrew H. Rosenberger, Zachary Harris, James T. Burns, and Richard W. Neu. The symposium is co-sponsored by ASTM International’s Committee E08 on Fatigue and Fracture and the European Structural Integrity Society (ESIS), ESIS Technical Committee TC21 Hydrogen Embrittlement and Transport. This symposium is intended to be a forum for the exchange of ideas, test methods, data, and analysis methods with a focus on current issues related to fatigue and fracture in aggressive environments, including environmentally assisted cracking, stress corrosion cracking, corrosion fatigue, hydrogen embrittlement, and high-temperature fracture. This symposium represents a great opportunity to initiate and strengthen future cooperation between ASTM International (formerly known as American Society for Testing and Materials) and the Technical Committee ”TC21 Hydrogen Embrittlement and Transport” of the ESIS. ESIS TC21 chair Milos B. Djukic will provide an update on this ASTM/ESIS cooperation soon. More details about this Symposium will be available soon. - The LinkedIn page for ESIS TC21 Hydrogen embrittlement and transport is open and already has 760+ followers including the most prestigious hydrogen embrittlement researchers worldwide: LINK
