WCCM 2016 -- symposium on Modeling Materials with Coupled Physics -- deadline extended January 24, 2016

Dear Colleagues,

12th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM XII) and 6th Asia-Pacific Congress on Computational Mechanics (APCOM VI) will be held will be held in Seoul, Republic of Korea, during 24 – 29 July, 2016. As part of this meeting, we are organizing a mini-symposium to address recent advances in modeling materials with coupled physics. Topics of particular interest include (but not limited to)

• Electroactive and magnetoactive elastomers
• Shape-memory and light-sensitive polymers
• Design of microstructured and functional materials
• Computational homogenization and multiscale modeling
• Soft composite materials and biological tissues

To submit an abstract, please visit the conference website http://wccm2016.org/sub/sub05_.asp?menu=4, and in the menu, please check "Mini-symposium" (for the presentation type) then "Multiscale Multiphysics Problems (MS601~MS699)" and mini-symposium (MS606) Modeling Materials with Coupled Physics (thermo- electro- chemo- and magneto-mechanics)

The extended deadline for abstract submission is January 24, 2016.

We are looking forward to your presentations at this mini-symposium.
