Topic 7. Rheology in Georgia

Professor Maka Mantskava presents the activities of the Rheology Society of Georgia; her presentation is attached to the minutes. An application to join the ICR has been submitted.

Topic 8. Proposals for changes in ESR constitutions, by-laws, and procedures

1) Reminder of the decisions adopted at the previous Committee Meeting Three main decisions have been made: 1) introduce the position of a Vice-President; 2) shorten and synchronize the mandates for the Executive Committee and the Delegates of Individual Members to 2 years, starting in 2021; 3) the Weissenberg Award will be presented every year.

2) Presentation of the updated Constitution The ESR is ruled by a Constitution and a by-law document. An updated version to the Constitution is presented; it is attached to the minutes. In order to keep the Constitution simple, only one Committee, i.e. the Election Committee, is mentioned in the Constitution. The other Committees, like the Weissenberg Committee, will work separately from the Election Committee. The composition and its attribution will be detailed by the bylaws. This principle will also apply to the other ad-hoc committees that will be created to make the ESR more efficient.

3) Implementation In order to proceed to the election of the Vice-President and the Secretary, the following agenda is proposed and accepted:

- Nominations for VP and Secretary will be sent to the Election Committee by May 15. - The Election Committee will announce a list of candidates by June 1. - Votes will take place before June 15. - VP and Secretary will take office on July 1. (until April 2021).

4) Weissenberg Awards The Weissenberg Award will be presented in 2021 and 2022 as decided. At the unanimity the Committee decides that the Award should not be presented the year of the ICR conferences (i.e. in 2020). Topic 9. Account and Budget

The financial situation of the ESR is healthy. On 23 March 2019, the total funds of the Society stand at £ 30,509.05 shared between Club Charity and Trust, and Business Instant Access (about 5,500 £). The Society has benefited from the large number of participants at the AERC2018. The financial report will be updated soon. The ESR treasurer reports for the periods 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 are attached to the minutes.

Topic 10. Report by European Editor of Rheologica Acta

The report prepared by Jan Vermant is attached to the minutes.

Rheology Course

Before the AERC 2018, on Monday 16th and Tuesday 17th of April, a rheology course with title “Particles, Active Matter, Confinement and Viscoelasticity: The Microfluidic Playground Program” was organized in Naples at the Federico II University. The course was coordinated by Pier Luca Maffettone, and lectures were also given by Amy Shen (Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology) and Julia Yeomans (University of Oxford). The program included the following lectures:

-‐ Introduction to microfluidics (P.L. Maffettone) -‐ Polymers and wormlike systems in confined flows (A. Shen) -‐ Polymers and wormlike systems in confined flows (A. Shen) -‐ Active matter: An introduction (J. Yeomans) -‐ Swimming at low Reynolds number (J. Yeomans) -‐ Inertial microfluidics (P.L. Maffettone) -‐ Rheo-‐engineered microfluidics/1 (P.L. Maffettone) -‐ Inertial and elastic instabilities in microchannels (A. Shen) -‐ The collective behaviour of active systems (J. Yeomans) -‐ Rheo-‐engineered microfluidics/2 (P.L. Maffettone)

The course was fully booked with 95 participants. Awards

Procter&Gamble sponsored two awards, for the best student oral and poster on topics of potential industrial interest (500€ each). The open access journal Applied Sciences sponsored one award for the best oral (500€), while the journal Soft Matter sponsored 3 awards for the best 3 posters (consisting in one-‐year subscriptions to Soft Matter journal). A committee chaired by Giuseppe Marrucci, and including Dimitris Vlassopoulos, Norman Wagner, Paula Moldenaers and Vincenzo Guida evaluated the oral and the posters during the conference for all the awards. P&G awardees were Mohammad Shanb Ghazani, Canada (poster title “Continuous fractionation of particles in viscoplastic fluids”), and Bram Schroyen, Belgium (oral presentation on High frequency rheology of colloidal dispersions: from hard to soft, from smooth to frictional). Applied Science awardee was Stefano Aime, France for his oral presentation with title “Power law viscoelasticity of a fractal colloidal gel”. Soft Matter Poster Awardees were Corinna C. Maass, Germany (Self-‐propelled oil emulsions: an active matter model system), Domenico Truzzolillo, France (Interfacial stresses in miscible fluids: an insight from fluid dynamic instabilities), and Ashna Rajeev, India (Liquid crystalline domains and associated sol-‐gel transition in cellulose-‐ionic liquid-‐water mixtures). Finally, Rheologica Acta gave the 2018 publication award to Ha Seong Kim, Frank Scheffold, Thomas G. Mason for the paper “Entropic, electrostatic, and interfacial regimes in concentrated disordered ionic emulsions” (Rheologica Acta 55, 2016, 683-‐697). Sponsors and exhibitors

AERC 2018 benefited for the financial contribution of the following sponsors: Platinum sponsors (€ 10,000 or more): TA Instruments, Anton Paar Gold sponsors (€ 5,000): Exxon Mobil Silver sponsors (€ 2,500): Malvern Panalytical, MP Strumenti

We also received donations from: University of Napoli Federico II (€ 2,800), Department of Chemical, Materials and Production Engineering – University of Napoli Federico II (€ 1,000), Department of Engineering – University of Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli” (€ 500), and from Linkam Scientific (€ 500). The following companies were exhibitors: TA Instruments, Anton Paar, Thermo Fisher, Incipientus, Bruker, LS instruments, Malvern, Springer Financial summary

In the following we show a synthetic provisional and final budget of the conference.

As clearly reported in the budget the differences between the provisional and the final one are essentially due to a larger income obtained thanks to the large number of delegates attending the conference and to the sponsorships. The outcome is reduced because we were able to have some discount by Hilton Sorrento

PROVISIONAL BUDGET INCOME

• Registration Fees € 245 000 • Sponsors & Exhibitors € 55 000 • Tot € 300 000

OUTCOME • Hilton Sorrento Palace € 180 000 • VAT Tax € 20 000 • ESR fee’s € 17 000 • Welcome + Conf Dinner € 48 000 • Secret. Abstract, Shuttles … € 25 000 • Rheology Course € 5 000 • Tot € 295 000

Palace and we were able to pay less tax than predicted thanks to a very scrupulous work done by the secretary. With the net profit, the Italian Society of Rheology -‐ SIR, a no-‐profit society, is financing student research scholarships on rheological topics, students’ participation to conferences and so on.

Feedback from the participants

A satisfaction survey was sent to all the conference delegates, resulting in replies from 146 delegates. The delegates were asked to rate the parts of the conference from 1 (poor) to 5 (excellent). The average grades for the different parts are given below:

Scientific content 4,5

Schedule organization 4,4

Poster session 4,0

Conference web app 4,1

Conference website 4,3

Conference venue 4,8

Registration desk and congress service 4,6

Technical exhibition 4,2

Catering (coffee breaks, lunches, receptions) 4,5

Concert and Conference dinner 4,5

Overall average grade 4,4 In addition, the delegates could leave comments and detailed feedback on the most positive/negative things at AERC 2018. The conference received lots of enthusiastic comments pointing out the excellence of the conference venue, catering, scientific content and local organization. Negative feedback related primarily to the crowded poster area, and to the fact that the meeting closed quite late on Friday afternoon.

Rheology in Georgia yesterday and today

• Interests of fundamental and experimental• Interests of fundamental and experimental rheology of Georgia increased in the middle of the last centurylast century

Th i i i f hi P f G• The initiator of this process was Professor George Mchedlishvili. Prof. G. Mchedlishvili was the head of the European Society of Clinical Hemorheologyof the European Society of Clinical Hemorheology and the World Organization for Microcirculation and Clinical Hemorheologyand Clinical Hemorheology.

• Now Georgia has a national representative in the European Society of Clinical Hemorheology. We are included in the Council of European Journal ofare included in the Council of European Journal of Hemorheology

St t f G iStrategy of Georgia

Th G i t t f h l i l h i f llThe Georgian strategy of rheological research is follows:We have two directions

1) Experimental, fundamental and apply scientific ) p , pp yresearch

2) Add the discipline "rheology" in educational programs of bachelors, masters, doctors in physical, biotechnologycal medical faculcybiotechnologycal, medical faculcy

Current Situation in Georgiag

• Rheology is a compositional science that aggregates interdisciplinary subjectsinterdisciplinary subjects.

• Rheological studies include researches in area of physics chemistry biology etcphysics, chemistry, biology, etc.

• Today we study the rheology of various areas in G i hGeorgia, such as:

- Rheology of petroleum products, oils

- Rheology of drugs, BAА, additives for food, food

Rheology in engineering architecture and architectonics- Rheology in engineering, architecture and architectonics

- Rheology of biomаterials

- Rheology of body fluids (blood, plasma, urine, liquor, etc).

Our problems

• For successful scientific work necessary• For successful scientific work necessary qualified academic personnel

Y h bl h• Young researchers are a problem everywhere and everytime

Wh t d i f d i i bl ?What we doing for decision problems?Rheology is a compositional science that aggregates interdisciplinary subjects.

• Therefore, we think to introduce rheology in technicalTherefore, we think to introduce rheology in technical and medical universities, as a mandatory component. This is decision for second problemp

• Therefore, we think necessary to have special retraining programs for different professions It isretraining programs for different professions . It is most be a course of adapted rheology for scientists. For example, rheologist-physics must learns p , g p ytheoretical rheology deeply, delving into physics laws, and the doctor rheologist must be learns only the definitions of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids and something the Poiseuille law. This is decision for first
