The MMT Symposium celebrates the 60 years since the foundation of the Mechanism and Machine Theory journal.
The symposium will be an in-person meeting, will feature several keynote speeches, round tables, oral and poster presentations covering the most recent developments and advances in the vast spectrum of areas covered by Mechanism and Machine Theory journal. The main purpose of the MMT Symposium is to join researchers in the general field of mechanism and machine science to exchange their results, and to discuss future directions.
Submission Guidelines
Authors should submit a two-page abstract, clearly stating the objectives, results and conclusions of the work to be discussed in the presentation. Each abstract will be rigorously reviewed. The abstracts must be prepared strictly following the provided template. All the formating rules can be found within the template file.
