equally important that is driv-ing the developments in mechanics of materials.In the past twenty-five years there has been tremendous growth in mechanics, material science,and in new applications of mechanics of materials. Twenty-five years ago, techniques such as thefinite-element method and Moire’ Interferometry, were research topics in mechanics, but todaythese techniques are routinely used in engineering design and analysis. Twenty-five years ago,wood and metal were the preferred materials in engineering design, but today machine compo-nents and structures may be made up of plastics, ceramics, polymer composites, and metal matrixcomposites. Twenty-five years ago, mechanics of materials was primarily used for structural anal-ysis in aerospace
of Moore's Law. Most experts, including Moore himself, expect Moore's Lawto hold for at least another two decades. The improvement of computation power has spawnedmany innovations in software in diverse areas. Early Computer-Aided Design (CAD) was usedfor time-consuming computations in the shipbuilding and aerospace industry. However, it wascumbersome to use and accessible to only a few large corporations. In time, computers becamecheaper, and interactive software was enabled through the commercialization of the mouse and Page 8.1325.1∗ Primary author to whom correspondence should be sent.
