  • communications and cooperation complex bacterial colonies
  • thermodynamics of chaos
  • statistical mechanics of vortex matter
  • order-disorder and phase separation - modelling grain sintering
  • towards a united approach to the fracture, yielding and damage
  • effect of interfacial bonding on the mechanical properties of bone tissue
  • self-organized criticality and deterministic chaos in a generalized spring-block model of earthquake faults - analytical and numerical results
  • some basic problems in micromechanics of solids with pores of various shapes (dry and fluid-filled)
  • self-consistent schemes in the problem of wave propagation in homogeneous media
  • recent advances in suspension mechanics
  • some microscopic perspectives in continuum modelling
  • observations of strain localization and instabilities in plastic deformation of metals
  • transitions in nonlinear mechanics
  • equivalence groups for second order balance equations. (Part contents).
