conference

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.
