About RANM 2009

The conference series entitled Recent Advances in Nonlinear Mechanics (RANM) is designed to gather leading researchers from three major areas of mechanics, namely, dynamics, fluids and materials.  We are interested in both fundamental and applied problems, where nonlinearities or nonlinear interactions play major roles.  The series is supported by the International Journal of Nonlinear Mechanics (IJNM) (http://ees.elsevier.com/nlm/), which is an official RANM publishing forum; in this context, selected papers of the conference will be invited to be included in a special issue of IJNM to be compiled under the stewardship of a Guest Editor .

RANM 2009 builds on the success of the previous and first conference of this series, which was held in Aberdeen, UK in August 2005.  The meeting in Aberdeen had some 150 contributions arranged into three symposia on Dynamics, Materials and Fluids (see RANM 2005 web site for more details).  Although the participation was from 20 countries from around the world, there was a dominant contingent from Europe.  To address this disproportion the Steering Committee has decided to organise the next RANM in Asia.  The beautiful city of Kuala Lumpur was chosen and Dr Ko-Choong Woo from The University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus has kindly agreed to act as the local organiser.
