BETECH 91 6th international conference on boundary element technology

IE D I T O R I A L

NOTE

This issue of Engineering Analysis with Boundary Elements is the second part of a special issue devoted to inverse problems. It should be noted that unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, the paper by R.A. Meric on shape identification of plates through an integro-differential condition, as stated in the Editorial of Part 1, could not be included in this issue. However, it has scheduled to appear in the September 1990 issue of Engineering Analysis with Boundary Elements Journal.

CALL FOR PAPERS

BETECH

91

6th International Conference on Boundary Element Technology 11-13 June 1991 - Southampton, UK OBJECTIVES The Boundary Element Technology series of conferences (BETECH) is now well established as the pre-eminent forum for the presentation of application orientated work in Boundary Elements and associated computational techniques. From its inception in 1985 in Australia the BETECH conferences have documented the increasing application of the Method and the Proceedings have become a standard reference for the engineering community. The BETECH conferences have always had an international emphasis with venues in Adelaide, Australia 1985, M.I.T., USA 1986, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 1987, Windsor, Canada 1989, Delaware, USA 1990, and Southampton, UK 1991. FIELDS OF A P P L I C A T I O N Papers are invited on the following topics. Abstracts should be sent to the address below by 1 June 1990

• Computer Aided Engineering

• Geomechanics

• Fracture mechanics and stress analysis

• Diffusion and convection

• Mass and heat transfer

• Error, sensitivity and optimization

• Fluid dynamics and aerodynamics

• Numerical and mathematical techniques
