1st Biennial ESIS-CSIC Conference on Structural Integrity
BECCSI 2025
November 25-28, 2025
Hotel Metropol Palace, Belgrade, Serbia
Dear colleagues, dear friends,
It is our pleasure to invite you to participate at the 1st Biennial ESIS-CSIC Conference on Structural Integrity (BECCSI 2025), in period November 25-28, 2025 (www.beccsi2025.com), in mutual organization of the European Structural Integrity Society (ESIS) and China Structural Integrity Consortium (CSIC). The inaugural event will be hosted in Belgrade, Serbia organized by the Serbian Structural Integrity Society (DIVK). Together, we aim to elevate the standards of structural integrity practices and welcome professionals worldwide to engage in this transformative journey.
Conference Venue
Bulevar kralja Aleksandra 69, Belgrade, Serbia (google maps)
The 1st BECCSI will serve as a unique platform for the structural integrity community to explore novel solutions and manufacturing techniques, evaluate advancements in codes and standards, and address key technical challenges in the field of engineering. Furthermore, the event will seek to place these discussions in the broader context of environmental impact and the future landscape of manufacturing, all of it with the ultimate goal to prevent failure and ensure complete structural integrity. The three-day conference will create a conducive environment for participants to network with international structural integrity leaders. It will facilitate subsequent discussions and the exchange of diverse views and information among attendees. Special focus of the conference will be on young researchers, including a competition for the Best Student Paper Awards.
Plenary lecturers:
Prof. Dr. Milos Djukic, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, University of Belgrade, Serbia
Prof. Dr. Jianying He, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Trondheim, Norway
