ESIS is an international, non-profit, scientific organization setting itself the task of obtaining new knowledge in the field of deformable solid body mechanics and the dissemination of this knowledge in order to increase the safety of operation and performance of equipment, systems and structures.
The goal of ESIS (European Structural Integrity Society) is to develop and expand knowledge
in all aspects of structural integrity and the dissemination of this knowledge throughout the world in order to increase
safety and performance of engineering equipment, individual components and structures.
Within the framework of ESIS, there are constantly 18 technical committees:
- Plastic Elastic Fracture Mechanics,
- Micro Mechanisms,
- Fatigue of Engineering Materials and Structures,
- Polymers,
- Polymer Composites and Adhesives,
- Dynamics of fracture and structural transformations,
- Ceramics,
- Numerical Methods,
- Concrete,
- Environmentally Assisted Cracking,
- High Temperature Mechanical Testing,
- Risk analysis and safety of large structures
- Education and Training,
- Integrity of Biomedical and Biological Materials,
- Structural Integrity of Additive Manufactured Components,
- Finite Fracture Mechanics,
- Non Destructive Evaluation, Integrity of Railway Structures.
Membership in ESIS provides access to the archive of ESIS publications, the ESIS newsletter containing reports on the activities of technical committees and twenty-five ESIS National Committees, allows you to use special organizational fees when participating in a number of European conferences and summer schools (for example, European conference of fracture, Crack path and some others).
ESIS regularly publishes special issues in the affiliated journals of Elsevier:
Procedia Structural Integrity,
Engineering Failure Analysis,
Engineering Fracture Mechanics,
International Journal of Fatigue,
Theoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics,
there is a blog on iMechanica, a special channel on YouTube, the website www.esisweb.org, pages on Facebook and Twitter.
