Previous meetings in the COMPLAS series were held in Barcelona in 1987, 1989, 1992, 1995, 1997, 2000, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2021. The first sixteen conferences in the series were technically and academically successful and these meetings have become established events in the field of computational plasticity. We intend to make of COMPLAS 2023 a step forward in the history of the COMPLAS conferences.
