Proceedings of the NUMETA '87 Conference/Swansea/6-10 July 1987
PREFACE
Numerical methods and related computer based algorithms form the
logical solution for. many complex problems encountered in science and
engineering. Although numerical techniques are now well established,
they have continued to expand and diversify, particularly in the fields
of engineering analysis and design. Various engineering departments in
the University College of Swansea, in particular, Civil, Chemical,
Electrical and Computer Science, have groups working in these areas. It
is from this mutual interest that the NUMETA conference series was
conceived with the main objective of providing a link between engineers
developing new numerical techniques and those applying them in
practice. Encouraged by the success of NUMETA '85, the second
conference, NUMETA '87, was held at Swansea, 6-10 July 1987.
Over two hundred and twenty abstracts were submitted for consideration
together with a number of invited papers from experts in the field of
numerical methods. The final selection of contributed and invited
papers were of a high quality and have culminated in the two volumes
which form these proceedings. This volume contains papers on the
themes of 'Numerical Techniques for Engineering Analysis and Design'
and 'Developments in Engineering Software'. Many new developments
on a wide variety of topics have been reported and these proceedings
contain a wealth of information and references which we believe will be
of great interest to theoreticians and practising engineers alike.
We are extremely grateful to all members of the Organising Committee
and the Technical Advisory Panel (see p.vi) for their help and assistance
in making the conference a success.
