The FESI Bulletin was written and produced by FESI with the aim to update, inform, and enthuse its readers about various aspects relevant to the engineering structural integrity community—from power generation, aerospace, through to biomedical. We here present to you the full archive of 26 numbers from its inception in 2004 until its final appearance in Winter 2022. Together, they form an interesting and valuable historical resource.

The FESI Bulletin was intended for those working in engineering structural integrity, and at the interface of engineering, including government, regulators, public utilities, legal and insurance companies and in academia or industry. It was, furthermore, of interest to anyone who wanted to know more about our constantly evolving field, whether or not they had an engineering or scientific background. It was relevant for anyone who wished to explore the economic, social and professional impact of engineering structural integrity, particularly in areas such as the environment and our daily lives.
