In recent years the scientific community, in particular the engineers, have focused considerable attention on the use of the finite element method. This is evidenced by the numerous national and international conferences held on this topic. In the last two years alone, 15 principal international conferences have been devoted to the finite element method, with the main emphasis on engineering applications.
These proceedings consist of three parts. Part I gives the content of the 10 one-hour lectures given by Professor I. Babuska on the mathematical foundations of the field, while Part II contains all but one of the 16 one-hour lectures given by the invited speakers. These papers cover a large number of important results of both a theoretical and a practical nature. Part III contains the abstracts of 15-minute contributed talks.
