Dear Colleagues,
The 53rd Annual Technical Meeting of the Society of Engineering Science (SES2016) will be hosted by the University of Maryland (UMD) during 2-5 October 2016 (note the new conference date) at the College Park Marriott Hotel & Conference Center.
Since James Watt, a Scottish inventor, improved the efficiency of steam engine, human civilization relies more and more on a steady supply of energy. Today we are at a transitional age. On one hand, we see technology advances in the exploration and development of oil and gas, a depleting resource; we see growth in handling aging and decommissioning. On the other hand, we see ideas and plans for the future's new energy structure.
Since James Watt, a Scottish inventor, improved the efficiency of steam engine, human civilization relies more and more on a steady energy supply. Today, the world is poised on the brink of two historic energy transformations: replacing oil with electricity in transportation, and replacing high carbon, finite-supply coal and natural gas with renewable wind, solar, marine and biomass energies for electricity production. This symposium is about current state of the art small scale technologies being applied to solve energy challenges,
Dear Colleagues,
We would like to invite you to consider submitting abstracts to the following minisymposium taking place as part of the Soceity of Engineering Sciences meeting to be hosted by the University of Maryland (October 4-7, 2016)
D-9 :Friction, Fracture and damage (http://ses2016.org/symposium-d-9-friction-fracture-and-damage/)
Ahmed Elbanna (University of Illinois Urbana Champaign) and K. Ravi-Chandar (University of Texas at Austin)
May 11 - 12, 2016 - St. Michael Cinema, St. Michael, MN
This two-day conference will include national and international speakers discussing the latest in Digital Radiography and Computed Tomography systems and technology. Current users of X-ray and Computed Tomography will gain more knowledge to improve their operations. Those new to the X-ray/CT scanning will hear from peers how they utilize the technology within their industry.
