This is the fifth official Congress of the U.S. Association for Computational Mechanics (USACM). It will be held at the Boulder Campus of the University of Colorado on Wednesday through Friday, August 4-6, 1999. A Post-Conference Short Course will be offered on Saturday August 7.

The theme of the congress is recent developments in the disciplinary bases and applications of Computational Mechanics to science and engineering for the new milennium. The Congress covers a wide spectrum of disciplines and applications. Bringing together researchers, developers and users is a key objective of this meeting.

The Congress is put together by a Local Organizing Committee advised by a Scientific Program Committee . These are some important dates. The Congress is partly supported by these sponsors.

The Congress headquarters are located at the Engineering Center, where most technical activities will take place. This is building 22, coordinates F/G-9/10, in this map of the main campus.
