The Call for Abstracts for HUMS2009 is now closed. Thanks to a record number of abstracts submitted and the high quality of those abstracts, the HUMS2009 Conference has accepted a record number of papers, describing among other the latest technologies, applications, and research, and covering fixed and rotary aircraft, marine and land vehicles.

HUMS2009 looks like being another exciting conference in the series!

Authors requiring full peer review now have until the 10th November (extended) to submit their papers.

Registration is now OPEN. The Registration Brochure can be downloaded from the Attachments.

1. ONLINE

Increasingly, mechanical devices whether fixed systems, land vehicles, marine vehicles (including submarines) or aircraft (including helicopters), are being managed using various Condition Monitoring (CM) or Condition- Based Maintenance (CBM) approaches. All these approaches rely on health (condition) and usage monitoring systems and are most suited to ensuring availability, reliability and safety of critical and high-value assets.

The DSTO series of International Conferences on Health and Usage Monitoring is an established conference in this area and has been run in conjunction with every Australian International Air Show since 1999. Since 2005, it has also formed part of the Australian International Aerospace Congress.

Accordingly, HUMS2009 will form part of the Thirteenth Australian International Aerospace Congress (AIAC13) and will include sessions at the Australian International Air Show. All submissions of abstracts and papers will be handled electronically via the AIAC13 website.

Conference details will be added to this website as they become available and conference documents will be available from the right-hand column of this page. A newsletter will be sent at specific times during the lead up to the conference. You may subscribe to this newsletter by clicking here.

A range of Sponsorship Packages for HUMS2009 are available now. The sponsorship early bird discount is extended until the 15th August - please click to request the document.

NOTE: Due to a conflict with the new dates of the Australian Formula 1 motor race, the Airshow, and hence the Australian International Aeospace Congress, have been moved two weeks earlier than originally announced. The venue has been changed to the Melbourne Convention Centre on the corner of Flinders and Spencer Streets (this is not the new Convention Centre in Southbank which is not yet open). The Monday prior to the Conference (9th March) is a public holiday in Melbourne.
