Hi, every body...
Can anyone please tell me about the kind of modelling that is done to study the Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) ?
I have gone through the lumped mass models, but I want to know about the distributed models ?
Is anyone having some papers or links related to distributed modelling of AFM ?
Thank You......

Just back from Prof. Mahir Hussein's seminar. He is really one of best physicist I have ever met. In past 30 years, he published more than 200 papers in the field of nuclear resonance, laser accelerated particles etc. There are more than 30 papers published in PRL alone. When input his name " M.Hussein" in arXiv.org, you can easily found 95 papers by him.
Attending conferences is one of the essential professional activities for scientific researchers. Conferences take various forms, such as community-wide meetings (e.g., MRS meetings, ASME congress, APS meetings), and topic-focused meetings/workshops (e.g., Plasticity07, Gordon Research Conferences(GRC)). While people have different preferences on the types of conference to attend (e.g., see a recent iMech poll initiated by Biswajit Banerjee ), here are some common positive driving forces to motivate one to attend a conference:
The 8th ISOPE Pacific/Asia Offshore Mechanics Symposium (ISOPE PACOMS-2008) is being organized by the ISOPE PACOMS-2008 Symposium Organizing Committee (SOC), and Local Organizing Committee (LOC). It will be held in Bangkok, Thailand, hosted by King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi, Bangkok, Thailand.
Important dates:
Abstract submission--------> February 15, 2008
Abstract acceptance---------> March 1, 2008
Manuscript for review--------> June 1, 2008

I work in gas turbine business and I noticed following phenomena so I would like someone helps me to understand.
I noticed that component made as full ring remains circular after load with outer pressure and temperature gradient (Figure 1) and component made as connection of 2 halfrings (Figure 2) deforms as on Figure 3.
