Proceedings of the Sixth European Conference on Mathematics in Industry August 27-31, 1991 Limerick

The sixth European Conference on Mathematics in Industry (ECMI 91) took place at Limerick, Ireland during August 27-31, 1991. This series of ECMI Conferences is clearly satisfying the need to provide a forum, in a European wide context, for the presentation of material related to the application of mathematics to industrial problems. The result, at Limerick, was the presence of approximately 170 delegates representing most countries of Western and Eastern Europe (with a small number from the U. S. and Canada) participating in this information exchange on a wide range of types of problems. The only identifiable common characteristic of the presentations was the element of application of mathematics to an industrially related problem. The conference programme consisted of 8 invited lectures with approximately 80 contributed papers. These proceedings consist of 7 invited lectures and 63 contributed papers. The range of topics is very wide including areas such as optical fibres, biomechanics, electric power optimization, heat conduction, cryptography, catalytic reactors, dynamics of non-Newtonian fluids, fluid dynamics in a variety of applications, continuing education, epidemiology, numerical methods and software, optimal control, robotics etc. It is not possible to group the presentations under identifiable topic areas and the contents have therefore been organized in sections devoted to the invited lectures and the contributed papers. Within the contributed papers there are two small subsections devoted to (a) industrial design and (b) mathematical education for industry. In each section papers are listed in alphabetical order by name of first author.
