Dear Colleagues:

We would like to invite you to submit an abstract for the 2011 ASME
IMECE in Denver, to be held November 11-17, 2011.  Our minisymposium
is on "Multiphysics Simulations for Solids", and is the
continuation of a very successful minisymposium held for the past 4 years
that have resulted in more than 50 presentations at the 2009 and 2010 IMECE conferences.  This year's focus areas
are:

1.Multiphysics modeling, simulation and experiments of electromechanical materials and systems

2.Multiphysics modeling, simulation  and experiments of optomechanical materials and systems

3.Multiphysics modeling, simulation and experiments of biomechanical materials and systems

4.Multiphysics modeling, simulation and experiments of thermomechanical materials and systems

5.Multiphysics modeling, simulation and experiments of fracture in solids

6.Multiphysics modeling, simulation and experiments of coupled diffusion and deformation in solids

Abstracts can be submitted at the conference website:  (http://www.asmeconferences.org/Congress2011/Author/NewAbstract.cfm),
where our minisymposium is Track 12-31.  Please note that the abstract
submission deadline is fast approaching, February 28, 2011.

Sincerely,

Gang Li, Harold Park, H. Eliot Fang, Hanqing Jiang, Aman Haque, Dong Qian, Ting Zhu and Spandan Maiti
