6. Conference Overview 45 th AIAA/ASME/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics and Materials Conference 12 th AIAA/ASME/AHS Adaptive Structures Conference (Greg Agnes and Lee Peterson ) There will be two Forums –Non-Deterministic Approaches (Chris Chamis & Levon Minnetyan) –Gossamer Spacecraft (Eric Flint & Rich Pappa) TC’s are responsible for: –Review of all papers in their area –Preliminary Layout of Sessions –List of names/address/email/phone for Session Chairs & Co-Chairs –Prioritization of each Session (give each session a different priority number) –Indicate Plenary Sessions and Student Papers

7. Abstract Review Procedures & Dates (Includes SDM, ASC, DSM and Forums) Abstract reviews will be handled electronically like last year Abstracts – published due date is 1 Aug 03 All abstracts get three independent reviews Invited vs. encouraged papers – what’s the difference? –The only truly invited papers are the Keynote addresses and the SDM Lecture –All other papers will go through the standard review process Swapping abstracts with other TC’s or Forums as appropriate is encouraged (inform the Technical Chair!)

12. Structures Review Statistics

13. Abstracts Processed –150 Total Structures Abstracts Submitted –0 Accepted (too early to accept/reject) –0 Rejected (too early to accept/reject) –34 Returned for Revision –449 Reviews Assigned –162 Completed Reviews –37% Total Reviews Completed 6 Student Abstracts Placed In Structures Sessions 5 Special Sessions in Structures Program Structures Area Abstracts – SDM 45

14. Review Process Review Team –36 TC Member Reviewers – Average 5 abstracts (will increase) –33 Friends of TC Reviewers – Average 5 abstracts –33 Volunteer Reviewers – Average 3 abstracts 1 st Abstract Deadline 8/1/03 - around 90 abstracts submitted 2 nd Abstract Deadline 8/15/03 – Shot up to 150 abstracts Conducted initial screening and sent 34 abstracts back for revision –19 were revised –15 were not revised; (will be rejected) –If reject 5 more, would give an acceptance rate of 87% 430 Now under review We are short on reviewers, as I expect some reviewers not to perform; expect to assign these to other reviewers

25. End of Presentation

26. Alternate Abstract Review Process Based on Materials TC Approach Distribute Submitted Abstracts to Small TC Review Team –Assess Technical Credibility –Identify Clearly Deficient Abstracts –Return Deficient Abstracts for Revision With Due Date Accept Abstracts That Pass Initial Review Reject Deficient Abstracts If Not Revised Reject Deficient Abstracts Not Revised Satisfactorily NOTE This Approach Is Fair –Allows for Revisions to Occur –Ensures That Authors Who Make An Honest Effort Get Chance to Present This Approach Is More Consistent With the High Acceptance Rates for Abstracts
