conference

This year’s meeting will take place on 13-19 November 2009, in Lake Buena, Florida.  The deadline to submit abstracts is today (2 March 2009).

On behalf of the NSF Summer Institute on Nanomechanics, Nanomaterials, andMicro/Nanomanufacturing, I am writing to remind you that the deadline for application for fellowships is March 1, 2009, for the short course entitled "Multiscale Science Based-Modeling and Simulation and Experimental Validation on Enabling Materials", to be offered from May 27 to May 30, 2009 in Evanston, Illinois.  The short course will first cover science-based modeling and simulation methods for general classes of enabling materials.

You are invited to present your research work on the mechanical behavior of nanocomposite materials (Nov. 13-19, 2009 in Florida, close to Disney World). This topic will be focused on systematic mechanics experiments, modeling and simulations to solve new challenging mechanics problems such the effect of nanofiller agglomeration on the stiffness and strength reduction; interfacial stress transferring and interface strength evaluation at the nanoscale.  Deadline for abstract submission is March 17, 2009.
