Create the Future_Design Contest 2010 from COMSOL Start date 01 March 2010.

This appears to be an interesting, helpful and rewarding approach to innovation from one of the leaders in commercial multiphysics modelling.

Comsol also provides a rich selection of freely available resource items, Conference reports on CD, white papers etc. which reminds me, I must pick-up the lastest. CD.

Material Matters and Materials Matter™?_Part I_ Acknowledgements and Dedication

This is really a double appreciation and a dedication to a lost friend.

The first acknowledgment is to the Materials Chemists whom I feel I have been neglecting of late, although some overlap occurs with my Materials Science and Engineering "defined" site.

In this case I am referring, the reader to the commercial materials chemistry company Sigma-Aldrich and their Learning Centre freely available reviews Material Matters ™ (12 quarterly reviews from 2006 to date,subjects covered: Alternative Energy Materials,Biomaterials, Metal & Ceramic Science, Micro & Nanoelectronics, Nanomaterials, Nanotechnology,Organic Electronics, Polymer Science) and Tutorials.

Dedication to a friend and mentor.
Jack Harris, the regular Materials World columnist, presents his views on topical issues under the heading Materials Matter. The journal has recently announce quote: "the sad news that Jack Harris, Fellow of the Institute (FIMM) died in February 2009. There will therefore be no Materials Matters columns for the time being. A full obituary for Jack will appear in due course in Materials World. "
