USNCTAM 2010: Minisymposium on Mechanics of Crystalline Nanostructures
Horacio Espinosa and I welcome the submission of new abstracts for a minisymposium on "Mechanics of Crystalline Nanostructures", to be held at the 2010 US National Congress on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (USNCTAM 2010), June 27-July 2 at Penn State University.
The minisymposium will focus on the development and application of both experimental techniques and computatiohnal models and methods to study and elucidate the mechanical behavior and properties of crystalline nanostructures, including nanowires, thin films, carbon nanotubes and graphene. Topics of interest will include, but are not limited to: (1) Deformation and fracture mechanisms in crystalline nanostructures. (2) Interactions of nanostructures, such as adhesion, tribology and energy dissipation. (3) Experimental and computational studies of size and surface effects on both the elastic and inelastic behavior and properties of crystalline nanostructures. (4) Development and application of atomistic and multiscale models for crystalline nanostructures.
