The Engineering Integrity Society is holding a conference on "High structural integrity with minimum testing" at the Nettle Hill Training and Conference Centre on Thursday 18th November 2004.

The Engineering Integrity Society is holding a conference on "High structural integrity with minimum testing" at the Nettle Hill Training and Conference Centre at Ansty, near Coventry, UK, on Thursday 18th November 2004 Contributors and delegates at this conference will be exploring modern methods of achieving high structural integrity with minimum resort to testing

In the current environment where manufacturers are under increasing pressure to cut production times and costs, the ability to prove a product's reliability during the design stage becomes increasingly attractive.

How much effort should be put into design before tests are carried out is now an important strategic decision, and developments in analysis are constantly shifting the borderline.

The presentations at this event have been chosen to focus on these considerations.

Speakers will look at the increasing use of finite element (FE) methods and on the possibilities for producing realistic simulation of service conditions.

A keynote presentation by Peter Blackmore of Jaguar will describe the principles of computer aided engineering in this field.

Contributors will then be looking at how to obtain reliable predictions and the relationship between analysis and testing.

The last two sessions will be concerned with making integrity tests more effective by using loading conditions near to the likely service pattern.

All presenters have substantial experience in this field and the event will provide an economic way of learning about current practice.
