Mission Statement To facilitate communication and a rich exchange of knowledge among academia, industry, and research societies whose works involve mechanics.
Introduction
Welcome to Britain! These lands have nurtured
many generations of notable mechanicians
including Sir Isaac Newton PRS FRS, James Clerk
Maxwell FRS FRSE, Sir William Thomson Lord
Kelvin, and James Watt FRS FRSE. This month
also marks 331 years since the publication of
Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy by
Newton, the book that laid the foundations for
modern mechanics.
This conference arose from the International
Symposium on Energy Challenges and
Mechanics, the highly successful symposium
series that covered an even broader range of
topics (ECM1, ECM2, ECM3, ECM4, ECM5 and ECM6). This gathering will explore the frontiers of mechanics, with a focus on applications and the interactive boundaries with many other
disciplines. Detailed topics can be found here.
