XXI International Scientific Conference

TECHNICAL SYSTEM DEGRADATION

2025

23 – 25 April 2025

TOPICS AND GOALS OF THE CONFERENCE

• Forming the level of technical risk, especially identifying hazards associated with degradation and fatigue processes occurring during operations, should be carried out already at the design stage. The factor that significantly determines such a procedure is the ability to diagnose and forecast the evolution of these processes, mainly to have methods for detecting periods of initiation and early, low-energy phases of development of this type of damage.

• The conference aims to present the latest achievements in the modelling and simulation of mechanical system failures, diagnostics of fatigue and low-energy failures, the safety of technical systems, and diagnostics of the technical condition and development of structural failures. An essential part of the conference topics are also issues in the field of broadly understood exploitation, with particular emphasis on the selection of an effective strategy and methods for diagnosing and forecasting the condition and evolution of damage, as well as issues related to security and defence understood both in the military and forensic science.
