Stability and Dynamics held in 2000 (Taipei),
2002 (Singapore), 2005 (Orlando, USA), this fourth
Conference continues to provide an international forum for presentation of
recent advances on various aspects of theories, analyses, experiments and
designs related to structural stability and dynamics. In particular, it will
reflect the state-of-the-art of the computational methods, software
development, networking technologies, new and advanced structural materials
and engineering applications characterized by stability and dynamics
features.
Topics will include
(but not limited to):
|
Active and Passive Control
|
Geometric and Material Nonlinearities

Shrimali. Both abstracts and final papers (limited to 10 pages) will be
fully reviewed by experts in the areas of structural stability and dynamics
and the procedure will conform to the standards required for refereed
conference papers (Download guidelines for
preparing manuscript). Please note that by
submitting a paper, you are committing to have at least one author to
register for the conference if the paper is accepted.
Selected papers from
those presented at the conference will be invited to be peer-reviewed for
publication in:
International Journal of Structural Stability & Dynamics
Mechanics of Advanced Materials and Structures
International Journal of Computational Methods in
Engineering Science and Mechanics

Rajasthan Tourist Map
|
Jaipur, popularly known as, ‘pink city’, is the largest and one of
the most beautiful cities in India. The city is remarkable among pre-modern
Indian cities, founded on 18th November 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II. The architectural
glory of Jaipur never fails to impress a traveler who is ready to delve into
the rich past of the country. The majestic forts, havelis
(grand private mansions),
monuments, and palaces are the reason why you should be in Jaipur for a
vacation. There are interesting places to visit that are rich in history
and reflecting the Rajputana heritage of the
country. Major tourist attractions of Jaipur are: Amber Fort and Amber
Palace, Hawa Mahal, Nahargarh Fort, Jaigarh Fort,
Central Museum, Jantar Mantar (astronomical observatory). Besides
these attractions, in Jaipur, a number of tour packages are also available
to other cities in Rajasthan, that include, Udaipur (the lake city),
Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Ranthambore,
Sariska, and the adjoining States of Delhi
(Capital of India) and Agra (the famous Taj Mahal).
The winter months of December-January are mild and pleasant,
with average temperatures ranging from 15–18 °C and with little or no
humidity. There are however occasional cold waves that lead to temperatures
near freezing. The city is well connected from all major cities of India
through Air, Rail and Road.

Jaipur city and other tourist attractions. You may write to the conference
organizers about your plans during ICSSD 2012 or you may plan your own trip.
Whatever actual charges will be borne by the delegate and may be paid
directly to the specified tourist agent.
