In the tradition of the previous conferences, SEMC 2025 will aim at bringing together from around the world academics, researchers and practitioners in the broad fields of structural mechanics, associated computation and structural engineering, to review recent achievements in the advancement of knowledge and understanding in these areas, share the latest developments, and address the challenges that the present and the future pose. The cross fertilisation between theory and practice that is anticipated will be expected to

  • promote a better understanding of structural behaviour
  • facilitate more realistic material and structural modelling
  • lead to the development of more appropriate computational schemes
  • enhance the confidence of structural-engineering practice.

The last conference, SEMC 2022, attracted 350 delegates from 45 countries worldwide. The Proceedings were published by Taylor & Francis (London), and feature 330 papers, all of which are indexed in SCOPUS and ISI Web of Science. The next conference, SEMC 2025, is expected to attract participants from all over the world. It is hoped that a good number of young and upcoming researchers will be able to join the many distinguished and well-established academics and practitioners who will be attending the conference and leading the discussions.
