3rd International Conference on Natural Hazards & Infrastructure (ICONHIC)

ICONHIC is committed to continuously deliver top-notch content on Natural Disasters and Infrastructure, bringing all contributors of the Natural Hazard Risk Management community under the same roof. Despite the ongoing distress and disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, the increased frequency and intensity of unceasing natural hazards require vigilance and cooperative action. In view of that, and following the request by several of our participants, the ICONHIC Organizing Committee has decided to host a Small Scale Online Preparatory Event this summer, paving the way for the core ICONHIC2022 event.

The Online Preparatory Workshop is aimed to warm up the conference audience prior to the in-person event in 2022 and connect academics, industry experts, and professionals during turbulent times and traveling uncertainty caused by the pandemic. The preparatory workshop features a limited series of Keynote Talks and Special Sessions, including "Metamaterial Concepts for Structure Protection. Harvesting the exotic properties of metamaterials to protect civil engineering structures from ground-borne hazards, from earthquakes to railway-included vibrations", co-organized by Prof. Dr. Eleni Chatzi. We believe that a virtual workshop is the right way to kick-start the discussion and help organize a more inclusive and engaging event in 2022.
