19th Youth Symposium on Experimental Solid Mechanics

The 19th Youth Symposium on Experimental Solid Mechanics was held in Rome, in June 5 - 7, 2024. The 19th symposium continues both the long tradition of this conference series and introduces novel elements. The YSESM 2024 symposium provides a forum for young researchers and engineers, students and PhD students dealing with subjects of experimental mechanics. In addition, the combination of the experimental mechanics with modern numerical methods will be a new focus of this symposium. The conference key topics were following: • Conventional and Advanced Experimental Methods in Solid and Fluid Mechanics • Non-Destructive Testing and Inspection • Measurements in Material Science • Computer Assisted Testing and Simulation • Engineering Design Simulation • Hybrid Methods, Experimental Techniques – Numerical Simulation • Optical Methods and Image Processing • Measurements in Biomechanics • Sensor Techniques for Micro- and Nano-Applications • Measurement Methods for Forensic Engineering Scientific comittee: Lajos Borbás - Budapest University of Technology and Economics Tomáš Doktor - Czech Technical University in Prague Marta Peña Fernández - Heriot-Watt University Daniel Kytýř (chair) - Institute of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, CAS Zoltán Major - Johannes Kepler University Linz Giangiacomo Minak - University of Bologna Nejc Novak - University of Maribor Sascha Senck - Upper Austria University of Applied Sciences Wels Jacek Tarasiuk - AGH University of Science and Technology in Kraków Matej Vesenjak - University of Maribor Zvonimir Tomičević - University of Zagreb Petr Zlámal - Institute of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, CAS Local organizing comittee: Riccardo Panciroli (chair) Giangiacomo Minak Tiziano Pagliaroli Maicol Laurenza Andrea Pagliaro Daniel Kytýř Petr Zlámal Guarantor of the peer review process: Daniel Kytýř Guarantor of the language editing: Dalila El Oumali
