CONTINUITY AND CHANGE
I want to share with you my intention to step down as president of KAUST at the end of my term in November next year. My President’s Circular announcing this to the KAUST community was sent this morning. A global search for my successor will be initiated shortly, and until the next president comes on board, I shall continue to serve.

Indo-Danish Bilateral Workshop on “Future Composite Technologies for Wind Turbine Blades” October 8-9, 2012 at IIT DELHI
An Indo-Danish bilateral workshop on “Future Composite Technologies for Wind Turbine Blades” was jointly organized by the Department of Wind Energy, Technical University of Denmark and Applied Mechanics Department, Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi, India. We think this is an exciting Workshop covering several research topics relates to wind turbine blades – design and manufacturing, new computational methods, processing and materials characterization techniques.
Complex interplay of nonlinear processes in dielectric elastomers.
A combination of experiment and theory shows that dielectric elastomers exhibit complex interplay of nonlinear processes. Membranes of a dielectric elastomer are prepared in various states of prestretches by using rigid clamps and mechanical forces.
