Proceedings of the International Conference on Structural Integrity and Durability 2017

The International Conference on Structural Integrity and Durability 2017 (ICSID 2017), “Fatigue and Fracture at all Scales” was held at the Centre for Advanced Academic Studies of University of Zagreb, in Dubrovnik, Croatia, from 14th to 18th August 2017. The ICSID 2017 conference managed to bring together scientists and engineers from about 30 countries from around the world to discuss how to characterize, analyse, predict and asses the fatigue and fracture of structural materials and components. The ICSID 2017 was a forum for discussion of the present and future trends in experimental, analytical and numerical fracture mechanics, fatigue, structural integrity assessment, failure analysis, and other important topics in the field. The delegates of the ICSID 2017 conference had the opportunity to interact and exchange ideas with leading researchers across a wide range of disciplines, and get acquainted with the state of the art in the theory and applications of fatigue and fracture mechanics. The ICSID 2017 conference further promoted cooperation among scientists and experts from university, industry and government involved in the field of the fatigue and fracture of materials and structures. Two-day 4th ESIS Summer School “Fatigue and Fracture Modelling and Analysis” was organized prior to the Conference, along with roundtable discussions on several topics, including how to teach fracture mechanics in the future and how to promote cooperation between universities and industry. I take this opportunity to thank to all participants of the ICSID 2017 conference for their contribution and many high-quality papers. I am very much indebted to the Scientific Committee Members for their invaluable help, suggestions and advice in the Conference organization. The Conference was supported by the Ministry of Economy, Entrepreneurship and Crafts and the Ministry of Science and Education of the Republic of Croatia, and by the European Structural Integrity Society (ESIS). The support is gratefully acknowledged. I would like to thank to all my colleagues and all persons who have been involved in the organization of the ICSID 2017 conference in various ways. Particularly, I wish to thank to the Organizing Committee Members for their great effort, support and commitment.
