INTRODUCTION
The
Congress on Numerical Methods in Engineering (CMN 2015)
aims to be a forum for the discussion of relevant scientific and tech-
nical developments in computational mechanics, numerical methods
and engineering applications.
CMN 2015 is jointly organized by
the Portuguese (
APMTAC) and Spanish (
SEMNI) associations for
numerical methods, and follows the previous congress editions of
Madrid (2002), Lisbon (2004), Granada (2005), Porto (2007), Barce-
lona (2009), Coimbra (2011) and Bilbao (2013). The scientific program
will comprise plenary lectures from internationally known research-
ers and will be structured in thematic sessions in different research
fields. It is expected that the addressed topics and presentations will
be a reference for future research directions and developments,
as well as an ideal media to promote the collaboration between
researchers, engineers, experts and students from Portugal, Spain,
Latin American and African communities.
THEMATIC SESSIONS
GENERAL TOPICS
PLENARY SESSIONS
Six plenary lectures will be delivered by international renown
researchers.
Complementary and up-to-date information on this topic can be
found in the Congress webpage.
