EMI Computational Mechanics Technical Committee Student Poster Competition

Sponsored by: EMI Computational Mechanics Committee (CMC)

Purpose:

  • Encourage student involvement in Computational Mechanics fields within EMI.
  • Expose students to Computational Mechanics research of other groups.
  • Facilitate student interactions with faculty and other students to build up strong networking and be ready to take on future responsibilities within the technical community.
  • Improve their technical writing and presentation skill, as well as to promote high-quality
  • submissions to the flagship journal of EMI, the Journal of Engineering Mechanics. 


Requirements:

  • Be the lead author of an abstract submitted to the EMI conference by the designated conference deadline and register to EMI 2018.  
  • Be a full time student at the time of abstract submission and the main contributor to the research.
  • Participate only in the CMC student competition. Participation in multiple competitions will automatically disqualify you from this competition.  
  • Submit the following documents via email to the CMC chair, Prof. Haim Waisman waisman@civil.columbia.edu:
  • Poster (PDF file, 4 ft high, 3 ft wide) by March 15, 2018.
  • Three-page paper (PDF file) - supplemental to the poster - by March 15, 2018.
  • One summary slide (PDF file) - for blitz presentation of the research - by May 15, 2018.

Deadlines:

  • January 15, 2018 - abstract submission deadline;
  • March 15, 2018 - a poster and a three page paper (supplemental to the poster) for part II of the competition;
  • May 15, 2018 - one summary slide for blitz introduction of the research in part I of the competition.

Prizes:

  • One winner and two runner-ups will be selected and named as the CMC student poster competition winners.
  • A cash prize and certificate will be awarded.
  • All three finalists will receive a complimentary banquet ticket.

Process:

  • The competition will consists of two parts:
    Part I: blitz slide presentation of the research - each participant will have 2 minutes to introduce their research to the broader audience before the actual poster competition. This part is intended for networking and visibility of students’ research within the EMI community including other student participants, CMC members and judges.
    Part II: poster competition - the posters and supplementary papers will be judged by a panel of up to three judges selected from the CMC membership.
  • Note that students must participate in both parts of the competition. The CMC chair will inform all students the date and time of the two parts of the competition.
  • One winner and two runner-ups will be selected by the judges based on the quality of the poster, the supplemental paper and the oral introductory presentation.
  • Awards will be presented to the competition winners during the conference.
