SMM at SMART 2025 and EVACES 2025
The Chair of Structural Mechanics and Monitoring at ETH Zurich is contributing to two leading international conferences this week—SMART 2025 in Linz and EVACES 2025 in Porto—showcasing advances in monitoring, intelligent systems, and physics-enhanced modeling for structural infrastructure.
This week, members of the Chair of Structural Mechanics and Monitoring (Prof. Eleni Chatzi) are participating in two high-profile conferences dedicated to the field of structural health monitoring and experimental dynamics.

🔹 SMART 2025 (Linz, Austria)
Organized under the ECCOMAS thematic umbrella, SMART 2025 brings together experts in smart structures, adaptive systems, and monitoring technologies. Our Chair contributes to three sessions:
Plenary Lecture: Physics as Structure for Modelling and Monitoring of Dynamical Systems, delivered by Prof. Eleni Chatzi (July 2, 9:00, HS1)
SHM-informed Strategies: "Monitoring-based Identification of Corrosion in Steel Structures",
by Yasemin Kurtis, Antonina Kosikova, Konstantinos Vlachas, Rosalba Ferrari, Andrew Smyth, and Eleni Chatzi (July 2, 13:50, HS4)
Functional and Non-linear Metamaterials: "Global Dynamics of Metaimpactor Lattices using Physics-Enhanced Machine Learning",
by Rui Zhang, Marcus Haywood-Alexander, Oleg Gendelman, Sami Masri, and Eleni Chatzi (July 3, 14:50, HS6)
