"Welcome to the webpages of ISIMM. I very much hope that this will stimulate further interaction between mechanics and mathematics."
Prof. Anja Schlömerkemper
President of ISIMM
The history of both mechanics and mathematics shows much evidence of the beneficial influence of each of these disciplines on the other.
Mechanics is understood here in the broad sense of the word, including relevant physical phenomena such as electromagnetic and thermal fields.
It is the purpose of this Society to promote the interaction of mathematics and mechanics. With this objective, international meetings shall be organized for the presentation and discussion of research at the interface of the two disciplines.
On March 21, 2025 Kumbakonam Rajagopal passed away. He was Forsyth Chair in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University, where he worked on the entire spectrum of mechanical engineering disciplines. H
He also worked on the interaction of Mechanics and Mathematics and was a member of ISIMM for a very long time.
