Typically The Contact Forces And Stresses Are Very High And They Are Transmitted Wuthin A Very Short Period Of Time.
This Leads To Questions, E.
g.
How The Slow Rigid Body Motion And The Fast Motion Changes Can Be Conssidered Simultaneously Or How Interface Effects Coouple To Wave Propagation And The Large-scale Motion.
The Putpose Of The Symposium Was Be To Provide A Basis For Discussion And Exchange Of New Concpets And Ideas To Scientists From All Over Europe And The Planet.
