This symposium, part of CIMTEC 2008 - 3rd International Conference on
Smart Materials, Structures and Systems to take place in Acireale,
Sicily, Italy, June 8-13, 2008, will highlight advances in adaptive
materials and in novel sensor/actuator and micro systems, and their
integration in mechatronic structures and systems of various
complexities also including intelligent and flexible robotics. System
level evaluation of smart structures, the interplay of actuation,
sensing and processing capabilities, the ideation and numerical
modelling and simulation of new actuation and sensing techniques for
integrated systems, the analysis, design and testing of active/passive
smart dynamic and static structural components and signal processing,
together with micro and nano technology, control electronics and
materials science involved in interfacing different materials and
functions, will be among the scopes of this Symposium that requires
multidisciplinary contributions by experts from materials science,
theoretical and applied mechanics, electronics, electromechanics and
manufacturing.
Solutions to new industrial and commercial applications that have well
matured beyond the concept stage, reports on more traditional industrial
systems where the incorporation of smart materials and integrated
devices favours an enabling new capability or a very remarkable
performance enhancement and/or cost reduction, and new ideas and
directions for future developments will be among the relevant scopes of
this Symposium.
