Dear Colleagues; I have attached the Call for Papers for the SPE ANTEC 98 meeting as a plain text document. Normally I would post an im such as this to a public Web site, but I was at a loss as to which one to use in this case. Since the deadline is drawing near I felt that I should get the info out to you as quickly as possible. Please let me know if this method worked for you. The file is a short one, so I have tried to avoid encoding it. You should be able to edit the relevant part of this message into an html document that you can save to your local disk. Just cut on the dotted lines. I am calling this to the attention of the worldwide SAS community because I believe that the session on "SAS for the Industrial Plastic Laboratory" that Brian Landes and I are organizing is a good opportunity for people who use SAS to solve real problems with polymeric materials to let some of their accomplishments be known. I am recruiting a few of my acquaintances to make presentatioins, but I would be really delighted to see some surprises in the mix of contributions. Please let me know if you are interested. Signing up requires submitting a hard copy of the Call for papers accompanied by a 100 word abstract. The signup form is available on the Web at the hot link embedded in the document that I have sent you. Thank You -------------- Look for the "end of html" line at the bottom ---------- -------------- Cut here to save html to your local disk drive --------- <!--This file created 8/5/97 3:32 PM by Claris Home Page version 2.0--> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>ANTEC 1998 - PAD</TITLE> <META NAME=GENERATOR CONTENT="Claris Home Page 2.0"> <X-SAS-WINDOW TOP=66 BOTTOM=480 LEFT=8 RIGHT=538> </HEAD> <BODY BGCOLOR="#F7BA6D"> <H1 ALIGN=CENTER>SPE Plastics Analysis Division</H1> <H2 ALIGN=CENTER>1998 ANTEC Call for Papers</H2> <H2 ALIGN=CENTER>Atlanta, GA, 26-30 April 1998</H2> <H2 ALIGN=CENTER> <HR> Deadline 1: <A HREF="http://www.4spe.org/ANTEC98A.HTML">Intent to Present</A> (click here for required form) - 15 August 1997</H2> <H2 ALIGN=CENTER>Deadline 2: Required Preprint to be submitted by: 10 November 1997</H2> <P>This is the <A HREF="http://soling.syr.edu/plasad/welcome.html">Plastics Analysis Division</A> (PAD) Technical Program Committee's Call for papers for the <A HREF="http://www.4spe.org/ANTEC98.HTML">1998 Annual Technical Conference (ANTEC)</A> of the <A HREF="http://www.4spe.org/SPE1.HTML">Society of Plastics Engineers (SPE)</A>.

This symposium emphasizes the ways in which SAS has been applied to support commercial products and processes. Presentations include broad reviews of the field as well as case studies on specific materials ranging from semi-crystalline polymers, to glasses and other classes of plastics <LI><B>Session Organizers</B>: <UL> <LI>Brian G.

Many design methodologies that use these materials require detailed data on the porous structure to predict, e.g., permeability and mechanical properties. Yet the time necessary to obtain the media structure is prohibitive. Papers are solicited that demonstrate advances in porous media characterization technology. <LI><B>Session Organizers: </B> <UL> <LI>Dr. David Salem TRI/Princeton P.O.Box 625 Princeton, NJ 08542 Phone: 609-924-3150, ext.35 e-mail: <A HREF="mailto:dsalem@triprinceton.org">dsalem@triprinceton.org</A> <LI>Richard S.

Conventional rheological measurements methods such as zero shear viscosity and dynamic modulus and their relationship to molecular characteristics are considered. More difficult measurements such as normal stress differences are increasingly being used in characterization and process monitoring. <LI><B>Session Organizers:</B> <UL> <LI>Jeffrey A.
