SEFI Mathematics Working Group
The SEFI (European Society for Engineering Education) Mathematics Working Group (MWG) was established in 1982. The aims of the Working Group include providing a forum for the exchange of views and ideas amongst those interested in engineering mathematics, and promoting a fuller understanding of the role of mathematics in the engineering curriculum, and its relevance to industrial needs.
Transvaluation: Making the world matter
In the current measurement - and indicator-driven knowledge culture, research in architecture, art and several disciplines within humanities and social sciences may succumb to economic or scientific models, or be separated from important contexts of invention, risking to reduce research largely to standardized reproduction. Responding to the current proliferation of evaluation systems and the dominant culture of measurement that comes with it, the Transvaluation international symposium searches for alternative, cooperative environments of knowledge, of creation and invention, of 'making and thinking', and ways to trans- and re-value research cultures from within.
International Conference on Creep and Deformation Characteristics in Geomaterials
The partners of the European Marie Curie Industry-Academia Pathways and Partnership project on Creep of Geomaterials (FP7/2007-2013, CREEP PIAG-GA-2011-286397) warmly invite you to participate in the closing conference for this project. This is an opportunity to discuss and share state of the art knowledge on creep of geomaterials and other porous media, with focus on geotechnical engineering challenges.
