Welcome to the TESConf2024
We are delighted to announce the 12th International Conference on Through-life Engineering Services 2024 (TESConf2024), to be held 6-7 June 2024 at Cranfield University, UK.
TESConf2024 brings together academia and industry to deliver engineering solutions for the life of complex and long-life assets.
This blends research and industrial solutions related to processes and methods that can optimise the value and cost in-use.
The topics covered explore design, functionality, performance, reliability and prognosis of the life of engineering assets. The research streams cut across the lifecycle with an emphasis on understanding the design and management to extend life.

Workshops
Academic and industry workshops will be hosted during the conference in the areas of industrial product service systems, through-life engineering, digital service engineering, repair technologies for advanced materials / composites, degradation assessment using non-destructive testing, diagnostics, prognostics, and health monitoring, to name a few.
Session proposals
The conference organising committee invites experts to host both academic and industry sessions within the conference area and topics. We invite you to send us a proposal (500 words max.) with a title for the session, proposal for a session chair and the area you wish to conduct this session.
Presentations
The presentations are 10 minutes.
The presentations should summarise the paper.
There is no need for the authors to submit the presentation, and it is the authors' responsibility to make sure the presentation is ready and available on their slots.
You can use the presentation template if you wish.
