Background & Scope

The International Chinese Association for Computational Mechanics (ICACM) and the Conference Board for the Enhancement and Promotion of Computational Methods in Engineering and Science (EPMESC) are pleased to announce that the Second International Symposium on Computational Mechanics (ISCM II) and the Twelfth International Conference on the Enhancement and Promotion of Computational Methods in Engineering and Science (EPMESC XII) will be held in Hong Kong and Macau during 30 November – 3 December 2009. The conference includes two sections (section I and II). Section I will be located in Hong Kong during 30 Nov. – 1 Dec. 2009 and Section II will be located in Macau during 2-3 Dec. 2009.

Following the last ISCM conference held and the official formation of The International Chinese Association for Computational Mechanics (ICACM) in Beijing in 2007, the ICACM board decided to hold the International Symposium on Computational Mechanics every two years. The second International Symposium on Computational Mechanics (ISCM) will be held in Hong Kong in 2009. The first EPMESC conference was held in Macau in 1985 and, thereafter, held alternately in Macau and a city elsewhere, including Guangzhou, Dalian, Shanghai, and Sanya, the EPMESC Board decided to have the host city of the conference outside China, and the conference to be jointly held with other congress of similar stature to expand its impact; hence the last EPMESC meeting was held in conjunction with APCOM’07 in Kyoto in 2007. This time, the conference is back to Macau and it is held in conjunction to the ISCM II in Hong Kong to continue the tradition.

This joint conference deals with problems on the development and application of computational methods in all aspects of engineering and science with special emphasis on mechanics. Plenary lectures and mini-symposia, special sessions that highlight the latest trends in different scientific areas are planned. In addition, best paper awards for young researcher and student will be presented.
