Contains papers presented at the Third International Symposium on
Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering (1997),
which provide evidence that computer-based models, and in
particular numerical methods, are becoming essential tools for the
solution of many problems encountered in the field of biomedical
engineering. The range of subject areas presented include the
modeling of hip and knee joint replacements, assessment of fatigue
damage in cemented hip prostheses, nonlinear analysis of hard and
soft tissue, methods for the simulation of bone adaptation, bone
reconstruction using implants, and computational techniques to
model human impact. Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical
Engineering also details the application of numerical techniques
applied to orthodontic treatment together with introducing new
methods for modeling and assessing the behavior of dental implants,
adhesives, and restorations.

Taken from the proceedings of the Fourth Symposium on Computer
Methods in Structual Masonry, this text examines the rapid advances
and innovations being made in the theoretical and applied aspects
of structual masonry. Focusing on the intergration of computer
modelling with experimental methods, assessment techniques,
restoration and retro-fitting procedures this is a thorough
examination of the subject by international experts.
Numerical methods and related computer based algorithms form the
logical solution for many complex problems encountered in science
and engineering. Although numerical techniques are now well
established, they have continued to expand and diversify,
particularly in the fields of engineering analysis and design.
Various engineering departments in the University College of
Swansea, in particular, Civil, Chemical, Electrical and Computer
Science, have groups working in these areas. It is from this mutual
interest that the NUMET A conference series was conceived with the
main objective of providing a link between engineers developing new
numerical techniques and those applying them in practice.
Encouraged by the success of NUMETA '85, the second conference,
NUMETA '87, was held at Swansea, 6-10 July 1987. Over two hundred
and twenty abstracts were submitted for consideration together with
a number of invited papers from experts in the field of numerical
methods. The final selection of contributed and invited papers were
of a high quality and have culminated in the two volumes which form
these proceedings. This volume contains papers on the themes of
'Transient/Dynamic Analysis and Constitutive Laws for Engineering
Materials'. Many new developments on a wide variety of topics have
been reported and these proceedings contain a wealth of information
and references which we believe will be of great interest to
theoreticians and practising engineers alike.

Dust storms are a vital component of the environment. This book
explores and summarises recent research on where dust storms
originate, why dust storms are generated, where dust is transported
and deposited, the nature of dust deposits and the changing
frequency of dust storms over a range of time-scales. It is the
first global study of causes and effects of dust storms, which are
one of the increasing nature catastrophes.
Through compelling ideas and examples, Beyond Authority argues that
new leaders need to be confident to legitimise themselves and
challenge old ways. They need to develop a leadership style that
enables them to lead beyond the traditional boundaries and
constraints of their organizations.

The first Interfaces Conference was held at Swansea in April 1988
and represented the then state of the art of the science of implant
surgery. The motivation for the initial venture was a supposed need
for a closer interaction and dialogue between the clinician and
scientist working in this area. As expressed in the Preface to the
first Conference, we felt that the interface was represented
graphically, scientifically and psychologically by the drawings of
Edgar Rubins (1915), again widely used in the literature to the
present Proceedings. The first Conference, we believe, achieved the
aims of the organisers in bringing together scientists and
clinicians towards an exchange of ideas by logically pursuing the
sequence of events in clinical implant surgery. The present
Conference, in collaboration with our Italian colleagues, has also
attempted to achieve the same aims by examining the behaviour of
implants constructed of a variety of materials in both hard and
soft tissue. Many contributions in the conference employed the
technique of finite element analysis, both for design and
optimisation purposes, particularly in relation to bone
remodelling. Indeed, this particular aspect of the Conference led
to much debate and will require a major examination of the many
levels of physical, chemical and biomechanical interactive
behaviour of the implant and its environment. All this natural
behaviour was presented and discussed, but difficulties and
failures remain with such procedures and we feel it is only by
continuing such meetings that we progress in this difficult area of
clinical science.

Many leaders have established their reputation in the internal silo
environment of their organization. When they extend their
leadership role beyond the organization, authority and legitimacy
are constantly in question. Julia Middleton argues that new leaders
need to be confident to legitimize themselves and challenge old
ways. They need to develop a leadership style that will enable them
to lead beyond the traditional boundaries and constraints of the
organization. This book provides many challenging and compelling
ideas and examples.
