Plenary Lectures.- Architecture Session.- Construction Management Session.- Construction Material Session.- Geotechnical Session.- Structure Session.- Survey, Mapping and  Geoinformatics Session.- Transportation Session.- Water Resource and Hydraulic Session.

J. N. Reddy is the O'Donnell Foundation Chair IV Professor in J. Mike Walker 66 Department of Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University, a highly-cited researcher and a leader in the applied mechanics field for more than 50 years. He is well-known worldwide for his significant contributions to the field of applied and computational mechanics through the authorship of widely used textbooks.

His pioneering works on the development of shear deformation theories of beams, plates, and shells (that bear his name in the literature asthe Reddy third-order plate theory andthe Reddy layerwise theory),  nonlocal and non-classical continuum mechanics have had a major impact, and have led to new research developments and applications.
