Abstract
This Special Part of the ANZIAM Journal (Electronic Supplement) contains the refereed papers from the 7th Biennial Engineering Mathematics and Applications Conference (EMAC 2005) held at RMIT University in September 2005. The EMAC series of conferences is held under the auspices of the Engineering Mathematics Group (EMG) (a special interest group of the Australian and New Zealand Industrial and Applied Mathematics (ANZIAM) division of the Australian Mathematics Society) and Engineers Australia. The meeting provides a forum for researchers interested in the development and use of mathematical methods in engineering and applied mathematics. A further theme of the conference is the mathematical education of applied mathematicians and engineers.
The EMAC meetings have taken place biennially since 1994, the most recent being held in 2003. EMAC 2003 was the 6th meeting in the series and marked a change to holding the meeting in odd numbered years.
Four keynote papers were presented at the conference; the titles and presenters were:
Convex Optimization and Applications
Prof. Stephen Boyd, Stanford University, USA
A Unified Approach to Optimisation on Manifolds
Prof. Jonathan Manton, Australian National University, Australia
Spontaneous Ignition---Assessment of Cause: A Success for Mathematics-in-Industry
Prof. Graeme Wake, Centre for Mathematics in Industry, Massey University at Albany, New Zealand
Data-based mechanistic modelling: an inductive approach to environmental systems analysis
Prof. Peter Young, Lancaster University, UK
In addition to the invited presentations, 100 contributed papers were presented at the conference. All of the papers submitted for consideration for inclusion in the EMAC 2005 Proceedings have been peer reviewed by at least two referees, and revised (if required) to satisfy the referees comments.
