摘要

The Society of Engineering Science (SES) 35th Technical Annual meeting was held on the campus of Washington State University in Pullman, Washington during the period Sept 27-30, 1998. The main objective of the conference was to provide a forum for discussion and dissemination of recent advances in research, development and education, covering topics from all areas of engineering science. The SES98 consisted of 25 symposia composed of 110 sessions. A total of 510 technical papers were presented at these sessions including three plenary lectures. The central theme of the conference was 'Engineering Science in the 21st Century: Bridging the Length Scales', addressing recent advances in engineering science, and identify long-term basic research issues and phenomena at various length scales (from atomic scale to continuum scale). Topics covered included, advances in fluids mechanics, solids mechanics, mechanics and materials, manufacturing, engineering physics, electrical engineering, biomechanics, soil mechanics, structural engineering, earthquake engineering, and nuclear engineering.
