Abstract (EN): The 1st Virtual European Conference on Fracture (VECF1) has gathered more than 300 researchers from all over the world. They have presented more 320 papers, including 9 plenary lectures in the scope of the main VECF1 topics. Starting with 1800 views on the first day, there were 9300 views in the "hottest period" (June 20-July 2), making this event a great success. Conference was organized through number of Symposia, managed by ESIS Technical Committees. In the scope of these topics number of papers dealt with damage, cracks and related failures, including large structures like bridges, aircrafts, pressure vessels, large rotational equipment, prestressed and reinforced concrete constructions. As guest editors, we hope the Damage, Cracks & Failure Special Issue provides a remarkable impact in the research related to residual life assessment, modelling of failure and crack growth analysis. We also would like to express our gratitude to all authors for their contributions and to all reviewers for their generous work to guarantee the excellence of the papers. Finally, the guest editors would like to express a special thanks to Professor Richard Clegg, Editor-in-Chief of Engineering Failure Analysis journal, and to Elsevier staff for their support during the preparation of this issue.
