Introducing the New ASME Electronic Copyright Process |
ASME is implementing a new electronic process for copyright submission effective immediately. This new process gives each author the ability to sign his or her copyright form electronically instead of filling out and sending the paper form to ASME.
In order for your form to be processed correctly, a few procedures
need to be followed:
- At abstract submission, the corresponding author must
enter all co-author information in the Tool with complete
and verifiable information, including email address
and telephone. Non-verifiable contact information may prevent
you from completing the copyright form and your paper from
being published.
- Once a draft paper has been accepted for publication, the author will not be able to change the author lineup or paper title.
- Once a draft paper is accepted for publication, each author of the paper will receive an email message with a unique link that will take each individual author to a website to electronically sign the form.
The entire process should take you 30 seconds or less to
complete.
For more detailed information, please go to ASME
Copyright Guidelines to familiarize yourself with this
new process.
Should you have any questions about the new process or about
adding your co-authors, either now or once the process has
started, please contact us at copyright@asme.org.

The ASME 2010 Conference on Smart Materials, Adaptive Structures
and Intelligent Systems will be held September 28 - October 1, 2010
in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This conference provides a casual setting
for formal and informal interactions between a broad range of experts
in diverse fields.
Adaptive Structures and Materials Systems by definition are intelligent, flexible systems that have sentience and responsiveness to ever changing environments. The field has rapidly matured due to synergistic interdisciplinary efforts across sectors of universities, government and industry. To continue the high impact growth of this field and lead it into the future, the purpose of this conference is to assemble world experts across engineering and scientific disciplines (mechanical, aerospace, electrical, materials, and civil engineering, biology, physics chemistry, etc) to actively discuss the latest breakthroughs in smart materials, the cutting edge in adaptive structure applications and the recent advances in both new device technologies and basic engineering research exploration.
To meet this goal, the conference is divided into six symposia broadly ranging from basic research to applied technological
design and development to industrial and governmental integrated system and application demonstrations.
The six symposia specifically are:
