The objective of the workshop is to present and discuss the benefits and problems of combined numerical/experimental methods for the study of wood and possibly also more general to bio-materials (e.g. micro-spectroscopy, mechanical tests in ESEM, full-field measurements of deformation, Finite Element simulation and optimization methods). The workshop will provide a forum to communicate current ideas and strategies in this field. Please find attached the announcement folder for your information and for distribution among your colleagues. Please note that the deadline for submission of abstracts is February 11, 2011. Updated information on the workshop and on COST Action FP0802 in general can be found at the webpage http://cost-fp0802.tuwien.ac.at Looking forward to meeting you soon in Vila Real.
