Description

Mechanics of Materials is a forum for original scientific research on the flow, fracture, and general constitutive behavior of geophysical, geotechnical and technological materials, with balanced coverage of advanced technological and natural materials, with balanced coverage of theoretical, experimental, and field investigations. Of special concern are macroscopic predictions based on microscopic models, identification of microscopic structures from limited overall macroscopic data, experimental and field results that lead to fundamental understanding of the behavior of materials, and coordinated experimental and analytical investigations that culminate in theories with predictive quality.

Original contributions are published on the thermomechanical behavior of technological materials such as metals, polymers, ceramics, various advanced composites, wood, etc., geotechnical materials such as rock and soil, and on thermomechanical processes pertaining to solid earth geophysics. The journal contains research papers, invited review articles, brief notes, letters to the editor, book reviews and news items.

Links to Conferences
http://icf12.com/
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.




http://www.icaf2009.nl/
International Committee on Aeronautical Fatigue, Rotterdam, The Netherlands, 25-29 May 2009.
The two-day conference consists of reviews of aeronautical fatigue activities presented by the national delegates of the 14 member nations of ICAF. It is followed by the three-day symposium that involves specialist papers presented by authors with design, manufacturing, airworthiness regulations, operations and research backgrounds. The ICAF 2009 symposium will be based on the theme "Bridging the gap between theory and operational practice". The last morning of the symposium will be dedicated to workshops with specialists providing in-depth lectures for the benefit of both novice and advanced workers in the field of aeronautical fatigue.
