From 21-23 June, the seventh International Conference of Engineering Against Failure (ICEAF VII) took place on the island of Spetses in Greece. Here, calculation concepts for the safety of components are presented and discussed, and our WNV/Strength Group contributed its findings in the area of shaft-hub connections and fretting fatigue. At the same time, our colleagues were able to gain insights into topics such as the calculation of wing structures of aircrafts or advanced material characterisation.
We would like to thank for the lively scientific discussion with international research colleagues, as well as the organising departments of the University of Patras and the Technical University of Darmstadt for the organisation. We look forward to the upcoming ICEAF VIII 2025!
