Engineering Registrationfees Deadline for payment: 1st March 2014,please see fees below. Student fee does not include banquet. Registration fees (in EURO) before Jan 1, 2014 Regular delegate 650,00 euro Student delegate 450,00 euro Extrabanquet ticket 75,00 euro after Jan 1, 2014 Regular delegate 850,00 euro Student delegate 650,00 euro Extra banquet ticket 100,00 euro Submission of abstractsSubmissionsof Abstracts is very easy, you just need to insert asmall text in a text box (max 1500 characters, no figures, no tables): Abstractsubmission: step2: fill your title, names, affiliation and your abstract (max 1500 characters); Step3: choose the Session in which you feel your abstracts fits best. In caseyou are experiencing some problems submitting your abstract, and you receivethis message: "Invalidfile extension. Extensions allowed" When yousubmit the abstract: you cannot copy/paste from word, because of embeddedformatting of Microsoft Word. However,it works if you copy/paste from NOTEPAD (windows) or TEXEDIT (MAc) It alsoworks well if you type directly into the text box Thedeadline for submission of abstracts is September 1st, 2013. Thelanguage of communication at the Conference will be English, and all abstractsmust be written in clear English. Acceptedabstracts will be collected together and published as the Proceedings of the1st International Conference on Mechanics of Composites. The Proceedings willcomprise a CD-ROM with the abstracts. The Proceedings will be available to allregistered participants upon arrival at the Conference. The authors may also wish to submit afull-length paper (max 20 pages) using the format suggested in the CompositeStructures journal. The submission of the full-length paper is optional, andshould be sent by email before July 1st, 2014. Delegates can participate in theconference without a full-paper. Afterthe conference, some papers will be selected and invited to submit an extendedpaper to Composite Structures (an Elsevier’s Journal-Impact Factor 2.240).
