FYI

From: Alba Sofi [mailto:alba.sofi@unirc.it]

we would like to kindly invite you to submit an abstract to the symposium

���Stochastic Optimization, Uncertainty and Probability���
(Track 4 Dynamics, Vibration and Control, Topic 4.15)

which we are organizing within the

ASME 2015 International Mechanical Engineering Congress & Exposition
November 13-19, 2015, Houston, Texas
(http://www.asmeconferences.org/IMECE2015/index.cfm)

This symposium aims to bring together researchers from both academy and industry to discuss the latest advances in stochastic optimization, uncertainty, probability and related fields (non-probabilistic analysis of uncertainty) with emphasis on applications to dynamics, vibration and control problems. Contributors are invited to present recent theoretical and computational developments focusing on their applicability in the field of real mechanical engineering problems. The topics to be covered may include, but are not limited to: stochastic programming; robustness; sensitivity; reliability-based optimization; uncertainty quantification (probabilistic approaches, interval model, convex models, fuzzy sets, Bayesian model, etc.); stochastic analysis; reliability assessment.

In order for your abstract to be considered, you must submit it online. Please, follow the instructions at http://www.asmeconferences.org/IMECE2015/Author/NewAbstract.cfm

Deadline for Abstract Submission March 2, 2015

We would appreciate if you could notify us by sending a copy of the abstract (email: alba.sofi@unirc.it).

Sincerely,

Alba Sofi, University "Mediterranea" of Reggio Calabria (alba.sofi@unirc.it)
