This volume contains the Proceedings of the IUTAM Symposium held in Liverpool in 2002. It includes the articles presenting the results of recent work in mathematical modelling that covers the following areas of continuum mechanics and theoretical physics: UL LI-Perturbation problems for partial differential equations and their applications in mechanics;/LI LIAnalysis of singular fields;/LI LIHomogenisation theory in models of composite structures; /LI LIMathematical models of cracks in solids;/LI LIWave propagation, scattering;/LI LIModels of photonic and phononic band gap composite structures;/LI LIAdvanced numerical techniques./LI/UL
