Welcome to the 26th IAES (International Acoustic Emission Symposium) held in the Kawasaki City, JAPAN. It is our honor to be the chair and vice-chair of the steering committee of this historic symposium. IAES has been held every two years since 1972 in Japan. The symposiums are organized by the Japanese Society for Non-Destructive Inspection (JSNDI). The topics discussed at IAES cover a wide range of applications and industries. We, the members of organizing committee welcome all researchers and engineers related to Acoustic Emission and look forward to discussing with you.

Kawasaki City is located in the Tokyo Bay-area and is a very attractive city situated between two of Japan's leading cities, Tokyo and Yokohama. There are more than 200 research and development institutions in the city, attracting a large number of researchers and engineers. Additionally, the city has a well-developed transportation network and is easily accessible from overseas via Haneda International Airport. I hope you will enjoy not only the symposium but also the cultural atmosphere around the Tokyo Bay-area.
