As discussed during the meeting, the deadline for submitting manuscripts for the planned special issue of the ASME Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology has been extended to mid-November.
Manuscripts are to be submitted to Prof. Ewald Werner, TU München. A short compilation of instructions for authors is available.
As announced in the first circular, the chairmen of the Colloquium will be Helmut BÖHM (TU Wien, Austria), Ewald WERNER (TU München, Germany), and Vadim SILBERSCHMIDT (Loughborough University, UK).
There is an agreement with the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) to publish selected and fully reviewed papers presented at the EC429 in the October 2002 Issue of the Transactions of ASME: Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology, which will be specifically dedicated to European research efforts in the field covered by the Colloqium. Manuscripts should follow the standard guidlines for the JEMT and are to be handed in during the meeting. If you require additional information in this respect, please, contact Ewald WERNER.
The Colloquium will be held on Wednesday, September 19, 2001, and Thursday, September 20, 2001, in lecture hall EI 8 (Pötzl-Hörsaal) of TU Wien, which is located at Gußhausstraße 27-29 in Vienna's 4th district. Because this lecture hall is located on the ground floor of the same building as the Institute of Light Weight Structures and Aerospace Engineering (ILFB), you can follow the directions to the ILFB to reach the conference site.

The conference fee includes refreshments during coffee breaks, tickets for two lunches at the dining hall ("Mensa") in the TU's Freihaus building (Wiedner Hauptstraße 8-10; building D on the map), and an informal conference dinner which will be held at a traditional Viennese Heuriger.
The conference fee is to be paid during registration. We will be able to accept cash or Eurocheques (in Austrian Schillings, ATS), but not credit cards. If this procedure causes major problems for you, please, contact the Conference Office to discuss alternative modes of payment.
The above conference fee of EUR 138,- includes a EUROMECH membership for one year at a cost of EUR 32,- for each participant who is not a member of EUROMECH. Please, note that the standard yearly subscription for EUROMECH comes at the lower price of EUR 24,-. Application forms for EUROMECH membership can be downloaded from the EUROMECH web site.
Note that the general secretariat of EUROMECH provides up to three grants of EUR 200,- each for scientists below the age of 35 who participate in the colloquium. Please, contact the Conference Office if you wish to apply for one of these grants.
Helmut Böhm, Institut für Leichtbau und Flugzeugbau, TU Wien Gußhausstr. 27-29, A-1040 Wien, Austria Tel.: (+43 1) 58801 31712 Fax: (+43 1) 58801 31799 email: hjb@ilfb.tuwien.ac.at URL: http://www.ilsb.tuwien.ac.at
For both hotels participants of the EC429 are eligible for a special reduced rate of ATS 1.090,- per night (please, upon booking specify explicitly that you will attend the EC429) for bookings prior to August 18, 2001. Both hotels are within a few minutes of walking distance to the conference venue.
If you prefer to book in another hotel of your choice, you may wish to avail yourself of one of the following web sites
Generally, it is advisable to reserve a hotel room soon, because September is still part of the tourist season in Vienna and hotels may be heavily booked.
This Heuriger can be easily reached by public transport in about 45 min. from the conference venue (take the subway U4 from Karlsplatz to Heiligenstadt, there you change to a bus of line 38A which you ride to the stop "Armbrustergasse", from where it is about a five minutes' walk to the Heuriger Welser; to generate a small map call the GIS WienGraphik and enter the address Probusgasse 12).
You are strongly advised not to go to the Heuriger by private car. On the one hand, the parking situation there is pretty bad and, on the other hand, one of the purposes of going to a Heuriger is to drink some wine ...
If you plan to attend the Heuriger with accompanying persons, please, be so kind as to advise the conference office in advance to help us in planning.
