Submission Guidelines
Please submit your paper via the paper submission page. Paper submissions will be accepted from July 1, 2026, through August 31, 2026 (5:00 PM Japan Standard Time). You may revise your submission until the deadline.
Paper Submission Page (English/Japanese) *Submissions open from July 1
Guidelines for Authors (English/Japanese)
１．Paper Content
Research on Earthquake Engineering and Earthquake Disaster Prevention
２．Number of Papers Per Author
Each presenter may submit one paper. However, if an invited talk (a presentation requested by the organizer) is scheduled, up to two papers may be submitted in total, including the general presentation (OS, general session). Even if an invited talk is included, two papers cannot be presented in the same session.
The following information is required: presentation title (Japanese and English titles), abstract (300 characters or fewer in Japanese and 100 words or fewer in English), author information, preferred session (first and second choices), and preferred presentation format (oral presentation or poster presentation).
