The devastating effects of recent natural hazards and disasters such as
hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, etc., on one hand, and the fragile
status of infrastructures systems, on the other hand, have underscored
that a great deal remains to be done.
This Conference is intended
to raise the awareness about this important topic and to suggest
strategies that can foster new paradigms in the interface of critical
infrastructures and the economic and social impact of resilience.
The
increasing necessity to solve complex problems in Resilience,
Earthquake Engineering and structural health monitoring requires the
development of new ideas and innovative methods for providing accurate
numerical solutions in affordable computing times.
ICONREM will offer a stimulating environment to share scientific knowledge and experience with colleagues from all over the world.
Conference sessions will be held in Turin at the Castello del Valentino with its modern meeting facilities and, on its last day, at the Joint Research Centre in Ispra, the third biggest European Commission site after Brussels and Luxembourg, located on the Lake Maggiore, about 130 km from Turin.
ICONREM will also be a great occasione to visit Torino and its region Piedmont, one of the most fascinating Italian tourist destinations.
We look forward to meeting you in Italy!
The conference chair
Gian Paolo Cimellaro
