Modeling and Simulation of Nano/Microsystems Contest

Submitted by BShiari on

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to bring your attention to the contest on "Modeling and Simulation of Nano/Microsystems" at the University of Michigan. This is an international competition.

The objective of this contest is to provide publicity and
promotional support to new developments, recent progress, and advances
in the modeling and simulation of Micro/Nanosystems. The emphasis is on
current challenges in understanding of the multi-physics/multi-scale
phenomena that govern such systems functionality.

Measurements of near-ultimate strength for multiwalled carbon nanotubes and irradiation-induced crosslinking improvements

Submitted by Horacio Espinosa on

For more than 15 years, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been the flagship material of nanotechnology. Researchers have conceived applications for nanotubes ranging from microelectronic devices to cancer therapy. Their atomic structure should, in theory, give them mechanical and electrical properties far superior to most common materials.  

The 13th International Conference on Experimental Mechanics

Submitted by Horacio Espinosa on

Dear Colleagues:


The 13th International Conference on Experimental Mechanics (ICEM13, http://www.icem13.gr) will be held on July 1-6, 2007 in Alexandroupolis, Greece. It is our pleasure to announce that the Conference will include a special symposium organized by us entitled, “Plasticity, Fracture and Fatigue at the Micro and Nano Scales,” which will focus on recent developments in this area within the larger scope of assessing research needs in a variety of applications of interest.
