The 23rd International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics
Dear Colleagues,
The 23rd International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (ICTAM2012) of the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM) will be held in Beijing, China, from 19 to 24 August, 2012. The Congress (ICTAM) is organized every four years by IUTAM. It brings together scientists from all over the world to exchange the recent developments in the field of mechanics to promote the research, application and education of mechanics. The first ICTAM was held in Delft , The Netherlands, in 1924, and the last ICTAM was held in Adelaide , Australia , in 2008. The ICTAM2012 is hosted by the Chinese Society of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (CSTAM). The President of ICTAM2012 is Professor Yilong Bai of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM) is an international non-governmental scientific organization with the objectives to form a link between persons and organizations engaged in scientific work in all branches of theoretical and applied mechanics and related sciences, including analytical, computational and experimental investigations; to organize international congresses of theoretical and applied mechanics, and other international meetings for subjects falling within the field of theoretical and applied mechanics; and to engage in other activities meant to promote development of mechanics, both theoretical and applied, as a branch of science.
The 23rd International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (ICTAM2012) will cover all branches of theoretical and applied mechanics and related sciences, including analytical, computational and experimental investigations, thus providing a unique means of achieving the objectives of IUTAM. The Congress is composed of four plenary lectures, namely, the Opening Lecture, the Closing Lecture, the George Batchelor Prize Lecture, and the Rodney Hill Prize Lecture, 17 Sectional Lectures, 6 Mini-Symposia and 46 Pre-Nominated Sessions. You are cordially invited to submit papers to, and participate in, the ICTAM2012. Submission of papers will be accepted after September 1, 2011. The First Announcement and Call for Papers with more information will be due in May, 2011(Click here to dowload the Preliminary Announcemen now).
