4th Canadian Conference on Nonlinear Solid Mechanics (Montreal, July 23-26, 2013) - Abstract submission deadline March 1, 2013
CanCNSM Conferences are intended to provide an international opportunity for communicating recent developments in various areas of nonlinear solid mechanics and materials. After 3 successful conferences in Victoria, Vancouver and Toronto, the 4th Canadian Conference on Nonlinear Solid Mechanics will be held in July 23-26, 2013 at McGill University which is best recognized for its research and discoveries in different fields of science.
curvature tensor
Could someone explain me what do the curvature tensor mean at surface structures?
THX for the help!
