3rd Reminder
Dear colleagues,
On behalf of the Organizing Committee of the 15th European Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering,
I wish to thank you for your collaboration up to now.
Having already collected the abstracts of papers, we are now in the process of compiling the programme of the Conference.
To this end we need also your help. We attach hereto the list and format of the Main and Discussion Sessions and we
kindly invite you to propose qualified persons from your Society who will be willing to carry out the key functions of the
sessions, namely:
- General Reporters in Main Sessions
- Invited Speakers in Main Sessions
- Chairmen and Co-Chairmen of Discussion Sessions
- Discussion Leaders
- Panelists in Discussion Sessions
Chairs in the Main Sessions have been already allocated to present and past ISSMGE Board Members.
Please fill-in names in the attached list, where you consider relevant and quote also the e-mail addresses of the persons proposed.
The Organizing Committee and the Conference AdvisoryCommittee will have the final choice.
You are kindly asked to return the list to the Organizing Committee, by e-mail or post, not later than the 15th of September 2010.
Keeping this deadline will be greatly appreciated as it will help the O.C. to prepare the 2nd Bulletin in time.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
For the Organizing Committee,
Michael Pachakis
Conference Secretary
