The European Mechanics of Materials Conferences (EMMC) is a series of biyearly meetings organized under the auspices of the European Mechanics Society, Euromech, that has taken place during the last 25 years. The conference will be a meeting point of researchers with common interests in mechanics of materials from different perspectives including mechanical engineering, physics, biomechanics, applied mathematics, chemistry, etc. Contributions will cover research at different length scales including model development and validation, advanced experimental techniques and computational methods for mechanics of materials.

EMMC19 is organized in the following symposiums that will be chaired by recognized scientists in the topic:
