International Conference on Structural Mechanics in Reactor Technology (SMiRT), 20. - 25. Avgust 2017, Busan, South Korea

The international conference on Structural Mechanics in Reactor Technology (SMiRT) is a biennial conference organized since 1971 by the International Association for SMiRT (IASMiRT). The IASMiRT is a non-profit organization based in Berlin founded by Professor Thomas A. Jaeger. The participants of the conference become automatically part of the association and have the right to attend and vote in the general assembly organized during the conference.

About 610 abstracts were initially submitted to the 24th SMiRT conference. A total of 478 papers were orally presented during 10 technical sessions, 2 state of the art sessions and 10 special sessions organized in 7 parallel tracks. In total, 506 registered participants joined the conference mostly from Korea, Japan, China, UK, Germany and France. It was agreed during the general assembly that IASMiRT will change its registration country from Germany to USA, becoming thus an American organization. The reason for this being that full tax exempt of SMiRT conferences is no longer possible under German law.

The SMiRT 24 conference was hosted by the Korean Nuclear Society and the Korean Pressure Vessel and Piping association in Busan, South Korea from 20th to 25th of August, 2017. The conference was attended by Dr. Oriol Costa, research assistant of the Reactor Engineering Division of Jožef Stefan Institute. He presented a joined paper with the Finish research institute, VTT in the technical session of Characterization of Loads.
