Reihe: Taylor and Francis Proceedings in Civil and Structural Engineering

Advances in Structural Engineering: Mechanics and Design comprises 60 papers that were presented at ISASE 2026, the First International Symposia on Advances in Structural Engineering (Cape Town, South Africa, 7–9 September 2026). The joint event comprised the Mechanics Symposium (ISASEM), which had a focus on the behaviour of engineering materials and structures, and the Design Symposium (ISASED), which focused on the design, construction and maintenance of engineering structures.

The Proceedings are divided into three sections. The first section is a mix of invited contributions covering both mechanics and design, while the other two sections contain contributions with a focus on either mechanics of materials and structures (Section 2) or structural design (Section 3).

These Proceedings will be of interest to postgraduate students, researchers and practitioners in the civil, structural, mechanical, marine and aerospace engineering disciplines.

Über Autor(innen)

Alphose Zingoni is Professor of Structural Engineering and Mechanics in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Cape Town in South Africa. After completing a PhD on shells at Imperial College London in 1992, he won a Research Fellowship of the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851, and remained at Imperial College for a further two years, during which period his interest in symmetry began. His research has focused on two main areas, namely the development of analytical methods for shell structures, and the use of group theory in studying problems involving symmetry in structural mechanics.
