The idea of holding the International Conference on Design and Analysis of Protective Structures against Impact/Impulsive/Shock Loads was conceived in 2003 by the three founding institutes of the conference series, namely, National Defense Academy, Japan, Pennsylvania State University, USA and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. The first conference was organized by the National Defense Academy, Japan and was held in Tokyo, Japan, on 15-19 December, 2003 at the Hotel Grand Hill Ichigaya. The theme of the first conference was "State-of-the-art in Protective Technology for Structure Construction"

The organizing committee takes great pleasure in inviting you to the Second International Conference on Design and Analysis of Protective Structures (DAPS2006 ), which will be held in Shangri-La Hotel Singapore, on 13-15 November, 2006.
