MaGIC meeting, 2026: registration now open
Dan Negrut
Dear Chrono Forum Member,
Radu Serban and I would like to invite you to attend the 14th edition of the Machine-Ground Interaction Consortium (MaGIC) meeting.
The meeting will focus on (a) the use of modeling and simulation in terramechanics, clean energy, robotics, and embodied AI; (b) agentic AI in simulation; and (c) high-performance computing in physics-based simulation. The event places equal emphasis on terrestrial and extraterrestrial applications.
Highlights:
- Dates/Venue: September 22, 23, and 24, 2026; University of Wisconsin-Madison
- Single track event: about 25 invited speakers from industry, government, and academia.
- Poster session: all participants are welcome to present posters (we will print your poster locally & free of charge).
- Technical presentations: two full days, September 23 & 24.
- Training: one day of hands-on Chrono tutorials about using simulation in robotics and embodied AI (September 22).
- Registration: free for participants from government and academia; $150 for colleagues from industry.
- Funding Support: National Science Foundation (NSF), and Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF).
Registration is now open. For more details and to register, please visit:
