Dear Colleague,

The 16th European Conference of Fracture (ECF16) will be held in the beautiful city of Alexandroupolis, Greece, site of the Democritus University of Thrace, July 3-7, 2006. The conference is organized within the context of the European Conferences of Fracture that take place every two years in a European country and is under the auspices of the European Structural Integrity Society (ESIS).
Professor E.E. Gdoutos  (School of Engineering Democritus University of Thrace GR-671 00, Xanthi, GREECE,  egdoutos@civil.duth.gr) is honored to be in charge of the organization of such an important event. The conference will cover all aspects of fracture and damage mechanics and fatigue.
Professor E.E. Gdoutos  extend a invitation to me to join the Organizing Committee of ECF16  and organize a session or a symposium of my choice.
I am honored with this Invitation to join the Organizing Committee of ECF16 and to be in charge of the organization of such an important event, as well as.
On behalf of the Organizing Committee ECF16, as well as in my personal name, I am pleased to invite you to participate with an contributed lecture in the work of the session (Minisymposium): Integrity of Dynamical Systems (Theory, Applications and Experiments) - (Phenomenology, Analogy, Nonlinear oscillations and Chaos, Stability, Clock Models of Structures: Paradigms of Nonlinear Phenomena, Noise and  Fracture Dynamics, Theory of stress and strain state of deformable bodies, Damage in structure, Models of different material, Control Oscillations of Active Structure and Fracture, Applications and Experiments).
We would appreciate very much if You accepted to give an Contributed Lecture on any of the topics from Your field of specialty, at Your own choice suitable to the session Integrity of Dynamical Systems (Theory, Applications and Experiments) as well as to Fracture Mechanics. We thank You in advance, hoping that you shall accept our invitation and send us the title and two pages abstract of Your Lecture.
      The deadline for receiving full information concerning Your decision, Your address and e-mails with titles of Your Invited talk and two A4 page Abstract of Your lecture, as well as file of CV in office session (katica@masfak.ni.ac.yu or khedrih@eunet.yu) is on or before February  30,  2005. This will help us to publish the official program well before the Congress and as a result, allow the participants to make suitable travel and accommodation arrangements.
 The paper must include: the title, author"s full name, scientific deegre, institution and address. The top of the first page (7 cm) should be left empty, while the text should be typed in Times New Roman 12 (for titles) and 10 (for the text) in file.doc electronic form (with corresponding followed  .pdf file).
 Unfortunately, in view of such a large ECF16 congress and the consequential expenses, it is not possible to provide support for the invitees and therefore the invitees are expected to find resources to cover their expenses of participation.
Please find enclosed a copy of the first announcement of the ECF16, to be held in the beautiful city of Alexandroupolis, Greece, July 3-7, 2006.
Professor E.E. Gdoutos is proposing to publish selected papers of the conference in a series of special volumes by Kluwer Academic Publishers.

Looking forward to hearing from you and to see You at the ECF 16-2006.

Cordially,
