 re (IGF)\, in cooperation with the Dipartimento di Tecnica e Gestione dei 
 Sistemi Industriali (Università di Padova)\, we are thrilled to invite yo
 u to the 29th International Conference on Fracture and Structural Integrit
 y (IGF29)!\nThe IGF has always been more than just a scientific group\; it
 ’s a vibrant community where passion for research meets real-world engin
 eering. IGF29 is our next big chapter\, and we want you to be part of it. 
 Whether you are a seasoned professor\, an industry expert\, a young resear
 cher or a Ph.D. student just starting out\, this conference is the perfect
  place to share your work on fracture\, fatigue and structural health in a
  friendly\, collaborative atmosphere.\nIt’s not just about the sessions
 —it’s about the people\, the fresh ideas\, and the connections we buil
 d. Come for the science\, stay for the community! We can’t wait to see y
 ou there and hear your perspective.\nTo celebrate Leslie Bank-Sills\, ESIS
  President 2010-2020\, her contributions to fracture mechanics research\, 
 her leadership in ESIS\, and her friendship with the Italian Group of Frac
 ture\, we decided to dedicate the IGF29 to her memory.\nIn addition\, the 
 IGF has decided to establish the 'IGF Bank-Sills Medal' to honour research
 ers who have distinguished themselves in Theoretical Fracture Mechanics. T
 he winner will be selected through a CV evaluation process (to submit the 
 candidacy\, send an email to gruppofrattura@gmail.com)\nHow to join the co
