ESIS NEWSLETTER - December 2024

The study of crack paths is a journey into the intricate world of material failure. It is a field where the beautiful complexities of microstructures meet the stark reality of structural integrity. Crack paths are rarely straight or predictable and are influenced by a myriad of factors. Understanding these influences is crucial, not only for predicting material failure but also for designing more resilient and durable structures. During CP2024, Dr America Califano and Dr Domenico Ammendolea have been awarded with the TC3 Young Scientist Award for their presentations.

America Califano, Sabrina Vantadori, Domenico Ammendolea. The Proceedings of the Conference will be published on an issue of Procedia Structural Integrity, collecting 59 papers related to many presentations made during the Conference. This Conference has been sponsored by the Italian Group of Fracture, ESIS, ASTM International, Rumul and University of Parma. We hope to meet you soon at the next “Crack Paths” Conference and TC3 activities.
