Abstract
AN International Rheological Congress will be held at Scheveningen (The Hague) during September 21-24. The Congress will consider theoretical problems ; fundamental experimental methods ; rheological properties of various systems; rheological problems in biology; and industrial applications. The plasticity of crystallized materials, soil mechanics and geophysical problems will be excluded, since other international congresses will give attention to these subjects during the year. Sectional meetings for the discussion of special subjects will be a feature of the meeting ; at these meetings, every speaker will give only a short account of his paper, so that ample time will be available for discussion. Manuscripts in English or French must be received before May 1. The maximum space for a paper is 2,500 words including formulae and diagrams, since the Proceedings must be limited to 500 pages. Preprints of all papers will be available at least a month in advance of the meeting. Owing to generous support from Dutch industry and scientific societies, the congress fee will be 15 florins (about £1 8s.) ; this will cover the cost of preprints, but not the Proceedings. The Organising Committee will help participants in obtaining accommodation at Scheveningen. The secretary of the Committee is Ir. H. C. den Daas, Julianalaan 134 (Postbox 66), Delft.
