Dear all, I am pleased to announce that the website for Tribomechadynamics 2019 is now live. This conference features four tracks: structural dynamics, contact mechanics, tribology, and research that spans multiple tracks (tribomechadynamics). Late abstracts are welcome through the end of May. Please see the website (http://tmd.rice.edu) or email Matthew Brake (brake@rice.edu) for more information.
Dear all, I wanted to let you know of two things: The projects for the 2019 Tribomechadynamics Research Camp (formerly known as a few different things, but the summer research institute that Christoph, Malte, and I have been organizing for a few years now) are now online, and the application period is open for students […]
Dear all, It’s that time again for us to submit our abstracts to IMAC. If you are planning on going and have a joints related paper, please consider submitting it to our session. If you put my name as the session organizer, that should get it to the right place. A few key dates to […]
For all of our contact mechanics enthusiasts, I’m pleased to share with you the announcement for ISFF9 (the 9th International Symposium on Fretting Fatigue) to be held April 1st-3rd, 2019 in Sevilla, Spain. The objective of this symposium is to share the latest developments in the field of fretting fatigue/wear by scientists and engineers from […]
Our colleague, Stefano Lenci, is organizing a symposium that may be of interest: IUTAM Sympoisum ‘Exploiting Nonlinear Dynamics for Engineering Systems’ ENOLIDES 2018 http://enolides.ftn.uns.ac.rs/ This symposium will be held at the Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad, Serbia from Sunday 15 July to Thursday 19 July 2018. The ENOLIDES Symposium is devoted […]
The Contact Mechanics Technical Committee is requesting papers for our inaugural contact mechanics session at the 73rd Annual STLE Meeting and Exhibition to be held May 20th – 24th in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This session will focus on the experimental and theoretical studies of materials in contact and the tribological ramifications.
For those of you that have made it to IDETC this year, I wanted to highlight a few joints-related activities: Technical Sessions MSNDC-4-1 – Monday at 11 am in room 25C VIB-6-1 – Monday at 4 pm in room 25C MSNDC-4-2 – Tuesday at 8 am in room 25C VIB-6-2 – Tuesday at 9:10 […]
I wanted to bring this conference to your attention. Next year, the 10th International Styrian Noise, Vibration, and Harshness Congress will be held in Graz, Austria, from June 20-22. Our colleagues at Munich (Prof. Steffen Marburg and Patrick Langer) are organizing a symposium on numerical modeling and uncertainties, including jointed structures. If you’re interested, please […]
The ASME Research Committee on the Mechanics of Jointed Structures will be holding its fall annual committee meeting at IDETC 2017, in Cleveland, Ohio, on Tuesday, August 8th, at 4 pm in Room 26C of the Cleveland Convention Center.

The 36th International Modal Analysis Conference (IMAC XXXVI) is now accepting abstracts. As in previous years, we will be hosting our spring annual meeting at IMAC. We typically have a strong showing of joints-based papers, and others outside of our community have started to notice this as well. So, this year, there will be an […]
