The 44th U.S. Rock Mechanics Symposium and 5th U.S.-Canada Symposium will be held in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, from June 27-30, 2010 with special events taking place before and after the symposium.

ARMA, the American Rock Mechanics Association, www.armarocks.org, invites scientific and engineering technical works including research, applications, and case studies.

For 54 years, the U.S. Rock Mechanics Symposium has brought together the expertise of different industries in the area of geomechanics—rock mechanics, rock engineering, and rock physics. Participants from the United States and other countries are the recognized leaders with demonstrated expertise in the area of rock mechanics. The technical works presented and published are understood to be the state of the art. This symposium brings together multiple disciplines--from mining, oil and gas, to civil and geological engineering.
