Description
Mechanics Research Communications publishes as rapidly as possible manuscripts of high standards but
restricted length. It aims at providing a fast means of communication and of exchange of ideas among workers in Mechanics, at offering
an effective method of bringing new results quickly to the public and at establishing an
informal vehicle for the discussion of ideas
that may still be in the formative stages.
Mechanics Research Communications will publish both scientific and applied
contributions. In either category, papers may be one of four types:
1. Complete: Self-contained, normally about six pages long.
The essence and motivation of the communication must be made clear in a first section, called Introduction, of length appropriate
to that of the entire article and written so as to be understandable to the majority of workers in Mechanics. No further abstract
is required. The remainder of the contribution may, of course, be addressed to specialists.
2. Abbreviated: Also about six pages
long; the remarks under 1. apply here as well.
3. Work in Progress and Preliminary Results: Accounts of current research and of
tentative results even if of a
conjectural but well documented nature, about two pages in length.
4. Letters: Not over one page
long usually dealing with previously printed contributions or with matters of general
interest to the Mechanics community, to be written
in non-aggressive language. After acceptance of letters
referring to previous communications, the authors of the original articles will
be informed and allowed four
weeks time to submit a written reply. The letter and the reply will be printed simultaneously.
In
addition, special features may be added from time to time.
The field of Mechanics will be understood in a broad sense, no attempt
being made to limit it or to provide it with a
precise definition. It will encompass the behavior of fluids, solids, particles, continua,
rigid bodies, mechanisms,
systems and so forth. It will include theoretical as well as applied and experimental researches, whether aimed
at
fundamental scientific advances or at practical engineering results.

The International Fracture Group and the Canadian Organizing Committee for the 12th International Conference on Fracture (ICF 12) invite all those interested in all aspects of fracture research to participate in this conference to be held in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada from July 12-17, 2009. The Conference will cover the latest developments in mechanics and mechanisms of fracture, fatigue and strength of solids.
Powders and Grains 2009 takes place at the Colorado School of Mines, Golden, CO, USA, 13-17 July 2009.
It is an international scientific conference held every 4 years that brings together engineers and physicists interested in the micro-mechanics of granular media. The conference is organized under the auspices of the Association pour I'Etude de la Micromecanique des Milieux Granulaires (AEMMG).
Previous meetings were held in Clement-Ferrand, France (1989), Birmingham, England (1993), Durham, USA (1997), Sendai, Japan (2001) and in Stuttgart, Germany (2005).
Powders and Grains distinguishes itself from other meetings on granular materials in two ways:
- It brings together both engineers and physicists.
- It emphasizes the micro-mechanics of granular materials.
The aim of the conference is to give an up-to-date picture of the broad research field of granular media. Contributions from experts around the world will be presented covering very different aspects of the problem.
