“Combining LDV with flying and moving platforms for flexible measurements on large structures: Joint research of TU Clausthal and the DLR“
by Prof. Christian Rembe, TU Clausthal, Germany
“The role of experimental dynamics in an era of Artificial Intelligence”
by Prof.Dario Di Maio, University of Twente, The Netherlands
He then worked as a post-Doc in the Rolls-Royce Composite Centre at Bristol University.
He was promoted to Assistant Professor of Dynamics at the Mechanical Engineering Department of the University of Bristol. He then moved from the UK to the Netherlands, where he is Assistant Professor of Dynamics at the University of Twente. His research interests include experimental dynamics, vibration measurements, vibration fatigue of composites and modal testing.
ABSTRACT
Optical methods have been one of the techniques for measuring mechanical properties whenever a test structure is not physically accessible by contact sensors, such as in an extremely hot environment. Our structural dynamics community have been using non-contact methods because of its full-field feature, which enables a much more detailed description of the dynamical deformations of structures. Large and dense response fields are so rich in information that the analysis and properties’ extraction were, and possibly are, never easy. Nevertheless, these measurement techniques are the core of experimental methods to underpin physical properties. Nowadays, AI provides fantastic tools for many data processing and analyses, which are becoming more and more accessible to non-experts. Our role as scientists and educators should be the by-pass between metrology and novel AI data analysis techniques.
“Novel Three-dimensional Continuous Scanning Laser Vibrometry for Structures with Arbitrarily Curved Surfaces and Novel Zero-contact Rotating Structure Vibration Measurement“
by Prof. Weidong Zhu, University of Maryland, Baltimore County, USA
“High-speed camera-based structural identification beyond 1/100.000th of a pixel”
by Professor Janko Slavič, University of Ljubljana
Prof. Slavič is a recipient of the Fulbright scholarship (University of Texas at Austin 2005-2006) and is a co-author of 82 scientific articles, 56 of which are in category Q1.
His works have been cited over ten thousand times. As a mentor or co-mentor, he has supervised 16 completed doctoral theses. In the last 10 years, his research has made significant contributions to the development of science in four scientific areas: vibration fatigue, experimental modal analysis based on high-speed camera recordings, 3D printing of sensors, and research based on open-source code.
ABSTRACT
Image-based measurement techniques have recently gained popularity and are increasingly used in various applications as a viable alternative to traditional measurement methods. Image-based techniques offer high spatial density of information, and with advancements in hardware, they can also provide a high frequency of image acquisition, such as 20k frames per second at megapixel resolution.
PRESENTATIONS
Presentations will be oral.
Presenting authors have 15 mins for their presentation, followed by 5 mins discussion.
Each session room will be supplied with an LCD projector and a PC with Power Point application.
Presenting authors can upload their presentations during the coffee break preceding their session or, for the opening morning sessions, before the beginning of the first presentation.
Authors who wish to do so can use their own computer hooked up to the projector.
MEETING with CHAIRMEN
Presenting authors are invited to meet the Chairman/ Chairmen of their session at the coffee break preceding their session or, for the first morning sessions, at the Chairmen meeting point just outside the main Conference room, Sala Ridotto, about 5 minutes prior to the beginning of the sessions.
BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
A short biographical sketch about the professional background of the Presenting Author is required as an introduction by the session Chairman.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Authors and co-authors are expected to attend the conference or to have a designated representative available to preset their paper.
The failure of authors to appear causes disappointment to the attendees and creates problems with the
programme schedule.
Authors who can no longer participate in the Conference and give their presentation due to serious unexpected events are requested to advise the Secretariat as soon as possible.

Ancona is situated in the centre of Italy, in the Marche Region, on a beautiful harbour facing the Adriatic Sea, 210 km northeast of Rome and 200 km southeast of Bologna.
It’s Greek name, Ankon, means elbow.
The town, in fact, stands on a promontory that has the shape of an elbow, offering spectacular sunrises and sunsets over the sea.
TRAVELLING TO ANCONA
Ancona can be easily reached
by plane: “Aeroporto Internazionale di Ancona” (10 Km from Ancona town centre)
by train: direct connections from Milan – Rome- Bologna
by car: Motorway A14 Bologna – Taranto: Ancona Nord and Ancona Sud exits.
ABOUT ANCONA
Vincisgrassi
A variant of the classic lasagna, it is a typical Sunday lunch dish.
Legend has it that in 1799 a chef from Ancona cooked this dish for General Windisch-Graetz, from which the name “Vincisgrassi” derives.The ingredients for this delicious recipe are: fresh egg pasta, meat sauce, parmesan cheese and béchamel.
Moscioli
This is without doubt the “historic” wine of the district.
Mentions of it date back to Pliny (AD 23/24 – 79).
It is mainly suitable for meat-based dishes, which bring out the austere flavour and moderate tannins.
If aged for at least two years, it becomes Rosso Conero Superiore, which is softer on the palate, with a strong fruity component.
Verdicchio dei Castelli di JesiMade from Verdicchio grape variety, Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi is a DOC wine produced in the provinces of Macerata and Ancona.
Thanks to the particular quality of the soil, the good exposure and the cool sea breezes, this wine offers a complex aromatic profile.
Structured, full-bodied, elegant, it has a straw-yellow colour with evident greenish reflections. Verdicchio is ideal for pasta dishes, risotto and fish-based dishes.
Moving uphill from the port, we reach the nearby Colle Guasco. Here we find the ruins of a Roman amphitheatre, an impressive construction of the Augustan period. Attached to it is what many believe to have been a “school for gladiators”, housed in a building with mosaics of the same period.
This is where some of the most important monuments of Ancona can be found, such as Palazzo del Governo, the Church of San Domenico and the statue of Pope Clement X.
It takes its name from Mount Conero, which forms the homonymous promontory overlooking the sea.
At the foot of Mount Conero there is a whole series of white pebble beaches, bays, sea caves and woods surrounded by unspoilt nature.
