Preface

This book contains articles presented at the Second International Symposium on Solid Mechanics, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 28-30 April 2009. The International Symposium on Solid Mechanics – MecSol – is the first Brazilian conference fully dedicated to this branch of the engineering science. It had its first edition in 2007 and takes place every two years in a Brazilian city. The MecSol Symposium is organized under the aegis of the Solid Mechanics Committee of the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering.

The Brazilian technical community working in the field of Solid Mechanics has longed for a specialized conference. Hence, the Technical Committee on Solid Mechanics, from the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering, ABCM, set as its main task to organize this conference, with the present book reflecting the effort of the committee to maintain the scientific standards attained in the first conference.

The Symposium aimed at gathering specialists in the field of Solid Mechanics for an in depth discussion of the many aspects covered by this large branch of science and technology. The book features articles with focus on fundamental and applied issues, including computational, theoretical and experimental contributions, drawing upon the various branches of engineering science and the allied areas within applied mathematics, materials science, structural engineering and applied physics.

The editors would like to take the opportunity of thanking all the contributors to this volume for their effort in meeting all the tight deadlines and in writing such fine works. We also thank Renato Yamassaki for the hard work in formatting the whole book. Ana Lucia Froés de Souza, secretary to ABCM, was most helpful in many issues related to the organization of the conference. Finally, we would like to acknowledge the support of the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering to this event.
