Aims and Scope
The aim of the “European Conference on Spacecraft Structures, Materials and Environmental Testing” is to promote and facilitate discussion and exchange of experience and information among members of the various mechanical engineering disciplines and environmental testing community concerned with spacecraft development, assembly, integration and verification.
The conference sessions will be devoted to:

• Mechanical architecture, design and engineering
• Structures 
• Materials (metallic, composite, ceramics)
• Structural dynamics, including shock and micro-vibration
• In-flight experiments and flight data
• Environmental testing and test prediction

In addition, round-tables and mini-workshops will be arranged to facilitate an open discussion on selected topics, e.g.  “Fluid/Structure Interaction”, “Virtual Testing”, “Advanced Manufacturing”, "Micro-Vibration Characterisation" and “Metrology for the Future Spacecraft Testing”.


Organisation
The Conference will include:

• plenary and splinter sessions
• poster sessions
• round-tables and mini workshops
• a technical exhibition (hardware, software)

The working language will be English.
