Background

The Pan American Congress of Applied Mechanics (PACAM) is a biennial event. The aim of the congress is to promote progress in the broad field of mechanics by (1) exposing engineers and scientists, as well as advanced graduate students, to new research developments, methods, and problems in mechanics and (2) providing broad opportunities for personal interactions through means of formal presentations and informal conversations.

"I attended the PACAM held in Puerto Rico some years ago and found the conference to be a wonderful opportunity to interact with colleagues from all the Americas" (Cornelius O. Horgan).

See historical note by Gerardo Diaz and Charles Steele (2002).
