Programme

Presentations devoted to fundamental aspects of mechanics, or spreading the field of applications of mechanics, are invited. We are particularly keen to receive contributions that show new effects and phenomena or develop new mathematical models. The topics of the conference cover all fields of mechanics, including, but not restricted, to

• complex media: micropolar theory, chemomechanics, acoustic metamaterials etc. (the section is dedicated to the memory of P.A. Zhilin)
• fluid mechanics
• nano-, micro- and mesomechanics
• phase transitions and nonlinear elasticity
• solids and structures
• mechanical and civil engineering applications
• nonlinear and multibody dynamics, chaos and vibration
• Quantum nanomechanics
• Plasticity
• Heat transfer and wave motion
• Reliability of technical systems
