The deadline for minisymposium proposals for the 12th US National Congress on Computational Mechanics (USNCCM12) has been extended to September 30, 2012.  

The Congress will be held July 22-25, 2013 in Raleigh, NC and proposals are solicited from people interested in organizing sessions in their area of expertise or interest and/or wishing to honor a particular individual for their sustained contributions or a special honorary birthday celebration.  

PhD positions are available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of New Orleans, starting in the spring 2013. Applicants with strong background in the areas of solid mechanics, composite structures, finite element analysis, and fluid-structure interaction (using Abaqus or ANSYS) are encouraged to apply. The research projects are on small-scale unmanned aerial systems. Applicants can learn more about the PhD program from the website, http://coe.uno.edu/coe_web/graduate/phd.htm.

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we invite you to participate at the Advanced Composite Materials Engineering (COMAT 2010),
