IRF2013_Home

IRF'2013 is the fourth international gathering of scientists and engineers interested in the fields of energy harvesting, materials engineering, engineering mechanics and their effect on the environment. This conference is planned for June 23-27, 2013 in Funchal/Madeira (Portugal). The first conference was held in Porto, in 1999, the second meeting was held in Singapore, in 2004, and the third in Porto again, in 2009, which attracted over 350 participants. These meetings resulted from the belief that of those disciplines associated with advanced product design and manufacture, engineering mechanics, materials engineering and thermo-fluid mechanics have made the most significant advance in recent years. Important and dramatic improvements in systems and component design can be made by the use of the latest advances in Integrity, Reliability and Failure of energy systems, structures and materials. Contributions in the fields of Nanotechnologies, Nanomaterials, Biomechanics and Experimental and Computational Mechanics applied to mechanical, aeronautical, space, civil, automotive, biomedical, environmental, and nuclear engineering will be welcome.
