Deakin University, Melbourne - 14th August 2017
Scattering techniques offer a statistical and non-destructive perspective on fluids as they are sheared. The purpose of this workshop is introduce non-specialists to the perspectives and possibilities of in situ characterisation of structure and dynamics using scattering and some of the facilities available for such investigations. Further details may be found on the meeting website: https://blogs.deakin.edu.au/soft-matter-scattering-workshop/2017/05/15/hello-world/.
There is also the possibility to present a poster.
