Certificate of Honor for the paper entitled “Determination of the Thermal Conductivity of VIPs at Fire/Elevated Temperatures” of the authors Dimos A. Kontogeorgos, Georgios K. Semitelos, Ioannis D. Mandilaras, Roland Caps, Libor Kubina, Maria A. Founti given by the scientific committee of the 12th International Vacuum Insulation Symposium (IVIS 2015).
IVIS 2015 was held in the Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (NUAA), Nanjing, Jiangsu, China and aimed to present the state-of-the-art research for the Super Insulation Materials (e.g. Vacuum Insulation Panels, aerogels etc.), offering a global platform for discussion and collaboration among researchers, manufacturers, building designers, project managers and end users. A total number of seventy seven (77) papers and posters were presented during the IVIS conference authored by academic and industry researchers from Europe, Asia and North America, which were focused on comprehensive issues ranging from materials, systems, applications and long-term performance.
