A friendly reminder that today is the last day for abstract submission to the National Congress on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (USNC/TAM).

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to cordially invite you to submit an abstract to Symposium #341 “Mechanics of Heterogeneous Soft Materials on Flexible Structures” at the 18th U.S. National Congress on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (USNC/TAM).

The conference this year is hosted by Northwestern University and will be held at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare in Chicago from June 4 to June 9, 2018.

To submit your abstract, please visit the abstract submission webpage and select Symposium # 341 from the drop down menu. Abstracts are due by November 10, 2017.

Symposium #341: Mechanics of Heterogeneous Soft Materials on Flexible Structures

The subject of the symposium includes, but is not limited to, mechanics of multilayered soft or flexible materials structures in broad length scales, finite-deformation mechanics of soft material cavities and inclusions, and folding of flexible structure in broad length scales.
