This distinctive quantity of the sequence Lecture Notes in utilized and Computational Mechanics is a compendium of reviewed articles provided on the eleventh EUROMECH-MECAMAT convention entitled "Mechanics of microstructured solids: mobile fabrics, fibre bolstered solids and smooth tissues", which came about in Torino (Italy) in March 10-14, 2008, on the Museo nearby delle Scienze. This EUROMECH-MECAMAT convention used to be together prepared by way of the Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Universit� di Torino, Italy and the INPL Institute (LEMTA, Nancy-Université, France). The convention lined many of the mechanical and fabric elements, grouped within the following 4 classes Fibre bolstered fabrics, tender organic tissues, Generalized continua: types and fabrics, and Non-linear wave propagation.

The demand papers for the rUTAM-Symposium on Mechanics of Passive and energetic movement regulate introduced an overpowering reaction of purposes for contributions. Fi nally 12 invited lectures, forty eight papers and 23 posters have been chosen via thc clinical Com mittee to be provided within the convention. fifty eight papers are released during this quantity. because of the constrained variety of pages to be had, poster displays couldn't be thought of for ebook. The editors want to thank all of the contributors of the medical Committee for his or her very beneficial counsel. The papers offered on the rUT AM Symposium have been categorised lower than 3 teams de voted to • Passive regulate tools, • energetic regulate tools and • keep an eye on ideas. This was once performed to distinction before everything among the passive innovations the place the regulate energy is especially provided via the circulation itself and the lively options the place the ability is seasoned vided by way of exterior resources; the 3rd crew was once dedicated to regulate strategies for providing equipment of keep watch over concept and new suggestions of move control.
