The final programme and list of posters in html format (links to abstracts are provided)

The final programme and list of posters in pdf format

Scientific Programme

• mechanics of non-classical media
• solids and structures
• phase transitions
• nanostructures and thin films
• wave motion
• nonlinear dynamics, chaos and vibration
• dynamics of rigid bodies and multibody dynamics
• fluid and gas
• computational mechanics
• mechanical and civil engineering applications

Four different forms of presentations are offered, namely, plenary lectures (1 hour), presentations at minisymposia (30 minutes), short communications (20 minutes), and posters.

The working language is English.

For the attention of russian participants: the Russian language as an exception can be used only in posters, but even in this case English is strongly recommended. Regrettably we can not provide simultaneous translation, and due to the international nature of the School all the oral presentations must be in English.
