About MARSTRUCT
The MARSTRUCT series of conferences sprung from the MARSTRUCT Network of Excellence with 33 partners, which was active from February 2004 to January 2010. It has become a biannual series of Conferences dedicated to Marine Structures allowing for periodic reporting and discussion of developments in the field. Meanwhile, MARSTRUCT is being continued as a Virtual Institute. The eight previous MARSTRUCT Conferences have been held in:
• Glasgow, 2007
• Lisbon, 2009
• Hamburg, 2011
• Helsinki, 2013
• Southampton, 2015
• Lisbon, 2017
• Dubrovnik, 2019
• Trondheim, 2021
The absence of an International Conference specially dedicated to Marine Structures was determinant in the decision to promote this as a regular event. The eight previous Conferences were successfully organised, bringing together authors from 20 countries, worldwide presenting close to 100 papers at each Conference.
The next edition of the Conference will be organized in Gothenburg, Sweden, and continues to be centred on the community interested in the various aspects related to Marine Structures. The organisers aim at maintaining the good standard of the proceedings already achieved, and Taylor & Francis will once again be the chosen publisher, as with previous proceedings that have been indexed on the ISI Web of Knowledge and on SCOPUS. The full papers will be peer-reviewed before acceptance, to maintain the quality of the final publication in order to meet the requirements of the academic and research community. The best papers will be selected for a special issue of an international journal dedicated to marine structures. This Conference will rely on its Committees as the main contributing body to the review process and acceptance of papers.
As a consequence from the pandemic, many conferences offers to attend onsite and online. The MARSTRUCT 2023 Conference follows this trend and is planned to be arranged as a hybrid Conference where the participants can either attend on-site or online. Of course, we hope that as many participants as possible will attend it on-site for networking, participate in scientific and social discussions during the breaks/lunches/ conference dinner, and see the beautiful city of Gothenburg.
