Symposium on Recent Advances and Applicationsin Nanoengineering and Nanosystems

Aug 25, 2013

Objectives: The long term objective of nanotechnology and nanoscience is to deliver solution to emerging issues such as environment, energy, medicine and healthcare, transportation, information/communication systems, systems safety etc.  The successful development and deployment of products and sensors based on nanoengineering and nanosystems toward problem solving serves an important indicator in the advancement of science and technology that bridges materials or syntheses  from nano to macro length scales.

Call for Presentation and Paper: 

Papers and Presentation that fall in the general areas of the following topics are invited:

·  Simulation Based Nanoengineering and Nanosystems: to include multi-scale simulation briding nano to macro length scale; synthesis of materials/sensors by design; molecular dynamics simulation, etc.

· Practical Applications of Nanotechnology: Nano-composites, light emitting devices and sensors, nano coating, quantum computing, nanoelectronics, etc.

· Bio-nanotechnology, Nanomedicine: Drug delivery systems, smart/disease targeting medicine, bio-fuel systhesis, synthetic bio-materials, etc.

· Experimental Nanomechanics: molecular/atomic/electronic imaging, digital image correlation, (design of equipment and) testing of materials at nano scale, nanofluics, etc.

· Innovative Nanomaterials and their characteristics: nano-diamond, energy harvesting materials/nano-alloys, bio-inspired materials, nano-poruos materials, functional nano particles, fuel cells, etc.

Paper Submission and Publication: 

·  Please submit an electronic copy (in WORD or PDF format) of the extended abstract with key graphs to Dr. Chuanyi Wang at "cywang@ms.xjb.ac.cn"; also cc to Dr. Max Yen at  max7ssg@gmail.com

·  Each abstract should include the following sections: Title and Authors/Affiliation (bold and center); Keywords (align text to the left), Introduction/Objectives, Approach and Results, Summary and Conclusions, List of References

·  Paper length up to four pages is recommended.

· The graphs can be conveniently embedded in the text

·  New Times Roman; 12 points; single space; paragraphs are separated by a blank line, text should be justified; arrange the text in single column

· The extended abstracts will be compiled into a proceedings

·  Selected papers will be recommended for publication at Journal of Nanoengineering and Nanosystems; New submission and peer review may be required.

·  Please refer to the Date and Time for paper submission deadline

Venue: 

The symposium is to take place at Urumqi, Xinjiang Autonomous Region, China.  The reservation of meeting site and conference hotel are being finalized by our host at Xinjiang Technical Institute of Physics and Chemistry.

Silk RoadXinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is located in the central part of the Eurasian Continent, on the northwest border of China. It covers about one-sixth of the country's total territory, 1,664,900 square kilometers (6,428,215 square miles), making it the largest administrative division with also the longest land frontier and most neighboring countries in the country. However, only about 4.3% of its territory is habitable. The rest is mostly desert such as Gobi, snow-capped mountains and glaciers. China's largest desert, Takla Makan Desert, is in this region. But in these unpopulated areas are scattered some special landscapes and unique natural scenery like Flaming Mountains and Yadan Spectacle.

Attractions 

The region has a unique landscape which is called 'three mountains surrounding two basins'. These features are, from north to south, Altai Mountains, Dzungarian Basin, Tianshan Mountains, Tarim Basin and Kunlun Mountains. The Tianshan Mountains, in the middle, divides this Autonomous Region into two totally different parts - the north part and the south part. If the north part means mountains and grasslands like the Kanas Nature Reserve and Narat Grassland, the south part means desert and Gobi such as the Takla Makan Desert; if north part means a pasture-based culture, the south part means an agricultural society; if north part means fine horses and the sounds of singing, the south part meansdances such as Mukamu (the most popular local dance). The capital city, Urumqi, is located in the north part. The city has many gorgeous landscape features such as Red Hill and Southern Pasture, as well as featured cultural relics like Tartar Mosque and Qinghai Mosque. Urumqi is also an important city along the world-famous Silk Road, an historically important international trade route between China and the Mediterranean, which extended as far as present-day Rome. Some other important cities in the Autonomous Region along the Silk Road include Kashgar and Turpan, which boast places of interest like the Id Kah Mosque, Karakuri Lake and Karez System.
