[clean-list] Call for Papers - ASME/IEEE International Conference on Reconfigurable Mechanisms and Robots (ReMAR 2009)

[Jian S Dai]

Dear Colleagues,

 

I am pleased to announce the Call for Papers of the ASME/IEEE International Conference on Reconfigurable Mechanisms and Robots (ReMAR 2009) to be held at King’s College London, University of London, UK during 22-24 June 2009.

 

With the development of science and technology and with space exploration, hazardous environment work, and production requirements of small batch, short run and quick change-over, traditional concepts of mechanisms and robots development are facing a challenge in the 21st century for adaptability and reconfigurability. Since 1990s, researchers are generating new ideas and concepts for new mechanisms and machines including robots for reconfigurability.

 

The ASME/IEEE International Conference on Reconfigurable Mechanisms and Robots (ReMAR 2009) is to provide an international forum for presenting and discussing new mechanisms and robots developed in the past decade for their new properties in changing the topological structure of a mechanism or a robot and for discussing their uses for domestic, hazardous, out-space and manufacturing  environments. The main areas of this conference include, but not limited to, following subjects:

 

Novel Mechanism Design

Metamorphic Robotics

Reconfigurable Manufacturing

Bio-design Technics

Bio-metamorphic Robotics

Reconfigurable Robots

Kinematics and Dynamics of Reconfiguration

Bio-reconfiguration Engineering

Metamorphic Mechanisms

Reconfigurable Mechanisms

Reconfigurable Topology

Various Topology Modeling

Modular Devices

Biological Self-Assembly Mechanisms

Biomimetics

Artiomimetics

 

The ReMAR 2009 will be held at King’s College London, University of London, which is situated at the heart of London, UK, in conjuction to the celebration of 171 Years of Engineering at King’s College London. King’s is one of the oldest and most prestigious UK universities with 13,000 undergraduate students and 9,200 graduates in nine schools of study with 2,700 academic staff and 2,700 other staff. The Engineering was established at King’s in 1838 and is arguably the oldest established engineering school in England.

 

You are very welcome to submit your work to this conference. Your submission will be reviewed by members of our Programme Committee and selected external reviewers. The accepted papers will be indexed by EI and the special issues of Robotica and Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science will be followed. More detailed information about this event can be found in conference official website: http://www.kcl.ac.uk/cmms/remar2009.

 

I will look forward to your attendance with us!

 

 

Sincerely yours,

Professor Jian S Dai
