Recent progress in the study of nonlinear wave propagation has been
influenced by developments in mechanics, acoustics, hydro dynamics,
plasma physics and many other fields of physics. This vast field of
research has also given rise to fascinating mathe matical ideas:
the inverse scattering method and the technique of exterior
differential forms being just some to be mentioned. Obviously the
theory of nonlinear waves may be interpreted as an
interdisciplinary study with the mechanics of continuous media as a
theoretical basis. This was the starting point of the proposal to
the General Assembly of the IUTAM to hold an IUTAM Symposium on
this topic, made by the USSR National Committee of Theoretical and
Applied Mechanics and the Academy of Sciences of the Estonian SSR.
Actually the IUTAM Symposium on Nonlinear Deformation Waves was the
third meeting of such kind to be held in Tallinn. In 1973, the
Academy of Sciences of the Estonian SSR and Gorky State University
or anized a national Symposium on Nonlinear and Thermal Effects in
Transient Wave Propagation. In 1978, the Academy of Sciences of the
Estonian SSR organized another national Symposium on Nonlinear
Deformation Waves with partici pants from several other countries.
The participants of this Symposium in their final resolution
expressed a wish that a similar meeting of definitely international
type should take place again in Tallinn in 1982."
