Aim and Scope

This is a three-day international conference on mathematical aspects of continuum mechanics for solids. It is the sequel of last year's CoMFoS15 workshop. We aim to discuss about the advancements of the topics in CoMFoS15 and bring forth new research topics. Now, CoMFoS17 is being organised.

The intended audience are experts from fields ranging from mathematics and physics to engineering and industry. We focus on mathematical theory and numerical simulations related to topics such as fracture mechanics, elasticity, plasticity, scattering, inverse problem and optimal shape design. These topics have become more important in engineering and industry, and a deeper understanding of their mathematical properties is required for future applications. We especially invite distinguished researchers from mathematics, physics, engineering, and industry. There will be various kinds of lectures including the special lectures by the keynote speakers of the conference.

History of CoMFoS and MACM

The conference series "CoMFoS" started at 1995 and has been organized by the activity group 'Continuum Mechanics Focusing on Singularities (CoMFoS)' in The Japan Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (JSIAM). From April 2010, the activity group CoMFoS was renamed 'Mathematical Aspects of Continuum Mechanics (MACM)'. The 16th conference of CoMFoS is held as the IMI Workshop of the Joint Research Projects supported by Institute of Mathematics for Industry, Kyushu University.
