Transfers

Transfers from and to the Conference venue
Transfers will be arranged throughout the day for the participants who want to reach the Conference venue as well as the Social program sites departing from pick-up points close to the chosen Hotels.

The transfers will leave from Via Turati 2 close to the Politeama Theatre and Piazza Verdi 10 close to the Massimo Theatre.

From the Palermo Airport to the city centre
Bus: At 30-minute intervals, the airport buses depart daily between 04:00 - 22:30.
Train: The regional train from the Airport to the Central Station leaves at 30-minute intervals between 05:15 - 00:25 daily.
Car: Take the A29 motorway in the direction of Palermo.
Taxi: Taxis are available at the International Arrivals.

If you wish to reach the Conference Venue directly from the Airport, the fastest way is the train; the stop "Palazzo Reale-Orleans" is 100 meters away from the venue.

The Conference Venue address is Università degli Studi di Palermo - Edificio 19, Viale delle Scienze.

To move from the Conference Venue to the city center there are two bus lines: 104, 118 but we suggest to either pick the Train at "Palazzo Reale-Orleans" station and reach "Stazione Lolli" station or get a taxi since the buses may take several minutes to pass by.

Extended deadline for early registration

The deadline for the early registration has been extended to July 15, 2023.

Informations

Save the Date: 27-30 August and Join us at the Engineering Mechanics Institute International Conference 2023 (EMI IC 2023) — the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) international annual mechanics conference. This conference will be hosted at University of Palermo, Italy, with organization led by Professors Massimo Midiri and Antonina Pirrotta.

The conference will provide a forum for researchers and practitioners, where the fundamental and applied advances in engineering mechanics will be on display. At the conference, learn about the latest discoveries in the field of engineering mechanics, disseminate your own contributions at topical sessions, listen to distinguished plenary lecturers and participate in discussions, panels and networking events to advance engineering mechanics education, research and practice.
But more, support all PHD students attending the special junior sessions where the chairs will be young Assistant Professors and speakers PhD Students, only.

With one registration fee you may present two papers!

Mini-Symposia and Session - Call for Proposals

Deadline for Submissions:

January 15, 2023 - mini-symposia proposals
April 23, 2023 - abstracts

Mini-symposia proposals for the conference are being sought. They must include the following information:

Title
Names and contact information of the organizer(s)
Abstract (1 paragraph)
Sponsoring committee, if any
Rough estimate of the anticipated number of presentations.
Specify, if you are Assistant Professor and your MS is for Special Junior Session, inviting as speakers only PhD students, (the abstract may be co-authored with senior authors).

It is expected that the mini-symposia organized by the leaders in the field will particularly stimulate the event and give it its unique flavor. From an organizational point of view, we envision a mini-symposium to consist of one or more sessions of 6 time slots each (one time slot equals to 20 min. incl. discussions). Mini-symposia with 3 or more sessions may include a keynote lecture having allocated two time slots for the presentation (equals to 40 mins. incl. discussions).

Mini-symposia proposals are to be e-mailed to antonina.pirrotta@unipa.it by January 15, 2023.
