Second International INNOVATIVE
NUMERICAL ENGINEERING
Symposium ANALYSIS SCIENCE
on IN APPLIED
Montreal, Canada 16-20 June 1980 BACKGROUND
Current research and development activities in applied engineering science have been strongly infhrenced by recent developments in numerical analysis. Much of this current work is the result of technology transfer, such as modeling air pollution problems with finite element-based tools, numerical application of classical analysis methods, such as boundary-integral equation analysis, and combined-method analysis where different tools are merged to solve problems intractable to analysis by the separate tools. In addition, greater emphasis is being placed on the interaction between analysis and design-application of these advanced numerical methods. PURPOSE The
Symposium seeks to recognize these areas of current research in innovative numerical analysis in order to provide a forum for technology transfer between active contributors and users, and between technology areas. ORGANIZATION The
host institution for the Second Symposium is the Ecole Polytechnique of Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Sessions will be held on the campus and lectures will be given in English and French. The proceedings of full-length papers will be available at the time of the meeting. PAPERS
Papers to be presented will be concerned with all areas of engineering sciences such as solid and fluid mechanics, electrical engineering, acoustics, etc., with emphasis placed on nonstandard and innovative numerical analysis, including technology transfer topics, hybridization of analysis methods, and new technology. The Symposium further seeks to emphasize the application of numerical analysis as opposed to the mathematical foundation of various numerical procedures. Symposium Coordinators
