IUTAM Symposium on Diffraction and Scattering in Fluid Mechanics and Elasticity: Proceeding of the IUTAM Symposium held in Manchester, United Kingdom, 16-20 July 2000

These Conference Proceedings are intended to summarise the latest developments in diffraction and scattering theory as reported at the IU­ TAM Symposium on Diffraction and Scattering in Fluid Mechanics and Elasticity held in Manchester, England on 16-20 July 2000. This in­ formal meeting was organised to discuss mathematical advances, both from the theoretical and more applied points of view. However, its pri­ mary goal was to bring together groups of researchers working in dis­ parate appl...
