Dear Colleague, This year's Forum on Tracking Detector Mechanics will take place on 23-25 May 2016 in Bonn (http://www.forumbonn.org/).   As in previous years we would like to provide the opportunity for discussions on a wide range of topics relating to tracking detector mechanics. A list of these topics can be found at the end of this email. We hope that submitted contributions will cover a wide range of them. Contributions will be talks of 30 minutes with 15 minutes for discussion. Note that last year we had more proposals for presentations than available slots, and we expect that interest in presentations will be at a similar level this year, so please make sure that you submit your abstract at the conference web site before the deadline. Again, this Forum is planned to be open also for presentations by companies providing equipment or services relevant to Tracking Detector Mechanics projects. Please contact the Forum's local organizers (forumbonn2016 AT physik.uni-bonn.de) in case you know a company that could be interested in this opportunity. Registrations and abstract submissions are now open! To register to the Forum and/or to submit a proposal for a talk go to https://indico.cern.ch/event/469996/.   Best regards,  the organizers   Topics for the Forum: * Mechanical design, advanced materials and construction technologies * Thermal management, cooling and bake-out  * Humidity control, monitoring  and sealing * Installation, integration, disassembly and transportation * Stability, alignment and adjustment systems * Quality control, failure and service management * Radiation effects on materials and handling of irradiated structures * Structural and vibration analyses A detailed topic list can be found at https://indico.cern.ch/event/469996/
