PREFACE
Over the last 40 years, the Engineering Integrity Society has established a distinctive culture of bringing together practising engineers and researchers from industry and academia to share insights, understanding and expertise. Throughout this time we have organised workshops, seminars, exhibitions and conferences and Fatigue 2024 is our ninth international conference.
Fatigue 2024 continues with the themes established in previous conferences to support the international fatigue and durability community. Participants at the conference will share knowledge and understanding of the challenges of using high performance materials for reliable, cost effective products. The papers presented will examine the interplay between the latest manufacturing processes, the properties of materials, and the integrity and performance of components operating in challenging conditions. The complex relationship between materials, process and manufacturing routes and the durability and reliability of the machines and devices forms the central theme of the conference.
The EIS is a registered charity and one of our aims is to encourage young people to consider careers in the engineering professions. We are pleased that almost one third of the papers at Fatigue 2024 have been written and presented by early career engineers eligible for the Peter Watson Prize, which we award annually in memory of our Founding President.
