About Xi' an, China

Xi’an, the capital of Shaanxi Province, is a world-renowned historical and cultural city located in the heart of China. With a history spanning over 3,100 years and having served as the capital city for 13 ancient Chinese dynasties, Xi’an is often regarded as the starting point of the ancient Silk Road and a cradle of Chinese civilization.
Today, Xi’an is a modern metropolis that harmoniously blends historical heritage with rapid technological development. The city is a key hub for scientific research, higher education, and aerospace innovation. Its vibrant cultural scene, historical landmarks such as the Ancient City Wall and Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and rich culinary traditions make Xi’an a fascinating destination for both academic collaboration and tourism.

ICMSSM 2026
ICMSSM 2026 is the 11th edition in this series of conferences started in 2013 that are devoted to around the design and analysis of mechanical structures that incorporate smart materials. ICMSSM is a famous event worldwide that covers many dimensions of adaptive structural design, smart materials for intelligent sensing and monitoring systems, energy harvesting and storage, vibration control and damping, biomechanics. With the booming demand of smart materials from every aspect of modern society, mechanical structures and materials have become increasingly critical and challenging. This conference provides a forum for academics and practitioners from all over the world to exchange ideas on integration of smart materials into mechanical structures for creating more efficient, adaptive, and resilient systems. We hope this conference will become a key player in shaping the future of engineering and materials science.

Following the traditions of previous successful ICMSSM conferences held in Xiamen, China in 2013; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in 2014; Nanjing, China in 2016; Shenzhen, China in 2018; Xi'an, China in 2019; Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam in 2020; Changsha, China in 2021; Bangkok, Thailand in 2023, Beijing, China in 2024, and Bangkok, Thailand in 2025.

ICMSSM 2026 will be held in Xi' an, China. The objective of ICMSSM 2026 is to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and governments to advance the theories and technologies in Mechanical Structures and Smart Materials. We look forward to welcoming you to Xi' an, China in April 2026. We believe that you will greatly enjoy this major scientific event as well as the Thailand culture, cuisine, and hospitality.
