Herein itisnotexcessivetoseekadvicefromdisciplineslikematerialsscience,structural engineering,mathematics,physics,reliabilityengineeringandeveneconomics. Today’sengineeringgoals,independentlyofsize;donothavetheluxuryofbeing outsideaglobalperspective.Survivaloftheintegratedmarketsandfinancialsystems requireawebofsafetransportation,energyproductionandproductmanufacturing. It is perhaps the first decade in engineering history that multidisciplinary ap- proaching is not just an idea that needs to materialise but has matured beyond infancy.Wecanwitnesssuchtransitionbyexaminingengineeringjobdescriptions andpostgraduatecurricula. Theundertakingoforganisingaconferencetoreflecttheabovewasnoteasyand definitely, not something that was brought to life without a lot of work and com- mitment. The 1st Conference of Engineering Against Fracture from its conceptual dayuntilcompletionwasdesignedinawayofunderlyingtheneedofbringingall thekeyplayersonacommongroundthatonceproperlycultivatedcanflourish.To achieve that the conference themes were numerous and despite their, in principle notional differences, it was apparent that the attendees established such common groundthroughargumentation.Thereadercanseethisfromthevarietyofresearch areasreflectedbytheworksandkeynotelecturerspresented. Aboostertoourendeavour wasdefinitelythefactthattheconference wasalso organisedtohonourtheretirementofProf.TheodoreKermanidis.Afigure,which caneasilyreceivethetitleoftheforefatherofourlaboratoryanddepartment.
