About AfriCOMP

We are pleased to announce the first African Conference on Computational Mechanics (Africomp) to be held at Sun City in South Africa. The Sun City resort is 2 hours drive from Johannesburg. It has a unique African rhythm unlike any other. It houses four world-class hotels including the magnificent world renowned Palace of the Lost City.

Africomp is a bi-annual international conference, which is held under the auspices of the International Association of Computational Mechanics (IACM), European Community on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences (ECCOMAS) as well as the South African Association for Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (SAAM). It serves to bringing together international researchers engaged in the broad field of computational mechanics and to stimulate research in Africa.

Technical papers are invited on topics from any area of computational mechanics. Proposals are also invited for mini-symposia organised by individual researchers (composed of at least 5 papers). As this is the first conference of its kind in Africa, a special award will be bestowed on the African who has made exceptional contributions to Computational Mechanics.
