Upcoming EML Webinars

27 May 2020, Norman Fleck, The University of Cambridge.

3 June 2020, Rob Wood, Harvard. Discussion leader: Rob Howe, Harvard.

Extreme Mechanics Letters (EML) seeks to publish research of immediacy, depth, and originality. Through lectures and discussions, EML Webinars shed light on the forefront of research, as well as the formative years of researchers. Videos of EML Webinars are posted at YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Weibo.

Please find attached the flyer for a CISM school entitled

Electro- and magneto-mechanics of soft solids: experiments, modeling and instabilities

that will take place on

June 8-12, 2010 at Udine, Italy.

As organizers of this prestigious School, it is our pleasure to invite you to subscribe by the CISM Secretariat not later than

April, 8th, 2020.

The School is addressed to doctoral students, post-docs and early career researchers with interest in active soft materials. The course is designed to give an integrated experimental, numerical and theoretical viewpoint on such novel material systems as well as possible future research directions in this field.

For more information see the attached flyer and visit the CISM website: http://www.cism.it/courses/

And more specifically: http://www.cism.it/courses/C2005
