INTERNATIONAL FORUM ON
AEROELASTICITY AND STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS

16 — 19 JUNE 2026 | GOETTINGEN (GERMANY)


URGENT INFORMATION FOR PRESENTERS OF A LECTURE/POSTER-PRESENTATION
  • REGISTRATION FOR PRESENTERS HAS CLOSED ON 10 APRIL AT 14:00 CEST. Contributions that have not been registered can no longer be considered in the programme planning, regardless of whether they are intended as oral presentations or posters. Authors who have submitted a contribution and received acceptance during the review process (whether for an oral presentation or a poster) may now only register as participants. Registration for presentations is no longer possible and will not be considered; however, general participation without a presentation remains possible.

BE A PART OF IT!

The 21st International Forum on Aeroelasticity and Structural Dynamics will be held in Goettingen, Germany, from 16 to 18 June 2026. An excursion/technical visit is also planned for 19 June 2026. The Forum will be organised by the German Society for Aeronautics and Astronautics (DGLR).

This IFASD will be the 21st in a series of meetings, held biennially across Europe and the United States. The first IFASD took place in Nuremberg (Germany) in 1981, and the most recent was held in The Hague (The Netherlands) in 2024.

As in previous years, the scientific sessions will cover key aspects of aeroelasticity and structural dynamics and will be held simultaneously in various conference rooms.

Topics/Session subjects will include:

  • Steady/Unsteady Aerodynamics
  • Computational Aeroelasticity
  • Aeroelasticity in Conceptual Aircraft Design
  • Aeroservoelasticity
  • Active Control and Adaptive Structures
  • Dynamic loads
  • Highly Flexible Aircraft Structures
  • Reduced Order Modelling
  • Wind Tunnel and Flight Testing
  • Ground Vibration Testing of Flight Vehicles
  • Flight Vibration Survey and Flight Flutter Test
  • Rotorcraft Aeroelasticity
  • Environmental dynamics and aeroelasticity
  • Experimental Methods in Structural Dynamics and Aeroelasticity
  • High frequency Structural Dynamics, Vibrations
  • High velocity Structural Dynamics, Impacts
  • General Topics in Aeroelasticity (Bridges, automotive components, Wind Turbines…)

PLEASE NOTE: The preliminary programme is now available! -> See Programme

We look forward to welcoming you to IFASD 2026 in Goettingen!
