The committee organizes conferences and technical paper sessions that archive the state-of-the-art in structural dynamics in aeronautics and astronautics. The conferences are designed to foster emerging technologies, respond to major technical barriers, archive current research, reward talent, and nurture the next-generation. The main conferences are the Structural Dynamics and Materials (SDM) conference held annually and the Dynamics Specialists Conference (DSC) held once in three years, both of which are now part of the SciTech mega-conference held in January.

The Spacecraft Structures Technical Committee (SCSTC) is focused on the unique challenges associated with structural systems that operate in space-based environments. This committee is particularly interested in the challenges of design, analysis, fabrication and testing of those lightweight structural systems that can be ground tested only in a simulated zero gravity condition, and are subjected to launch loads, deployment loads, and the space environment. This discussion forum is open to the public. You must log in to participate.

Scope: To promote the development of survivability as a design discipline, including both the survivability assessment methodology (analysis and testing) and the survivability enhancement technology, for air and space systems. Survivability involves both susceptibility, the likelihood the system is hit by a damage-causing mechanism, and vulnerability, the likelihood the system is killed due to the hit. Other essential elements of survivability are crashworthiness and repairability, the ability to rapidly repair a damaged system. The threats to system survivability consist of weapons encountered in combat, terrorist weapons, and other hostile environments. This discussion forum is open to the public.
