  abstract: The 22nd International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (ICTAM) of the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics was hosted by the Australasian mechanics community in the city of Adelaide during the last week of August 2008. Over 1200 delegates met to discuss the latest development in the fields of theoretical and applied mechanics. This volume records the events of the congress and contains selected papers from the sectional lectures and invited lectures presented at the congresses six mini-symposia.
  table of contents: Sectional Lectures and Mini-symposium Papers -- Material Instabilities in Elastic and Plastic Solids: The Perturbative Approach -- Modelling Strain Localization by Cohesive (Overlapping) Zones in Tension (Compression): Brittleness Size Effects and Scaling in Material Properties -- Multi-scale Analysis of Polycristalline Metals and Composites -- Micro-architectured Solids: From Blast Resistant Structures to Morphing Wings -- Plasto-Mechanics of Large Deformation under Impact Loading -- Onset of Oscillatory Thermocapillary Convection -- Instabilities of Flows through Deformable Tubes and Channels -- Surface Bubbles in Micro-and Nanofluidics -- CXXII Contents -- Bridged and Cohesive Crack Models for Fracture in Composite Materials -- Relaxation to Steady Vortical Flows – and Knots in the Quark-Gluon Plasma -- Instabilities across the Scales: Simple Models for Shear Banding, Plate Subduction and Mantle Convection in Geodynamics -- From Dry Granular Flows to Submarine Avalanches -- Failure of Rocks in the Laboratory and in the Earth -- Modeling of Bone Failure by Cohesive Zone Models -- The Aerodynamics of Wind Turbines -- Cohesive-Zone Modeling of Adhesive Joints -- Author Index.
