Our purpose is to bring together engineers and scientists who are interested in the basic science of continuous media and in the applications of that science to engineering problems. The main workshop activity will be intensive and extensive discussion of theory, experiment, simulation and design issues related to the mechanics of solids and liquids. Scheduled activities will include one two-hour technical session per day, which will include one or more technical presentations plus related discussion. In addition there will be three tutorial lectures on reduced dimensional solid mechanics by L. Mahadevan. There will be accommodations, including single rooms and suites at the quadrangle club on campus.
Limited support is available to academic invitees.
