Venue

The 8th ECCOMAS Thematic conference on MULTIBODY DYNAMICS will be held in Prague, the Capital city of the Czech Republic. This meeting cannot profit from a nearby sea or natural beauties in the neighbourhood, nevertheless we hope that view onto the river Vltava and the spirit of Prague’s ancient architecture may also provide an interesting frame to the Meeting.
