2013
Due date - Friday, June 21, 2013
Dear Colleague,
This is a call for input to the next issue of the Worldwide EAP (Electroactive Polymers) Newsletter. This Newsletter is intended to provide a timely platform for technical information exchange among developers, users, and potential sponsors.
Motivation: EAP has great potential but there is a need for significant effort before these materials would become the actuators of choice. Technical collaboration and timely information exchange among scientists and engineers worldwide can contribute greatly to the advancement of this field. The WW-EAP Newsletter addresses the need for rapid communication of progress and state-of-the-art capabilities.
Due date: Please
submit input(s) via e-mail, fax, or mail as listed below by no later than Friday, June 21, 2013
Format: The input should have less than 300 word (similar to an abstract) and, preferably, containing graphics (photograph or drawing). Please include your name, and e-mail address. For example of inputs please visit:
