This first volume focuses specifically on mechanics, detailing the historical evolution and organization of the Structural Engineering Convention (SEC) in India. The material features technical prefaces by prominent engineers and covers advanced research topics such as functionally graded materials (FGMs), blast and impact mechanics, and seismic vibration control. It provides a comprehensive overview of the ninth biennial SEC held at IIT Delhi, including committee structures and the rigorous peer-review process used to select papers. The inclusion of a specific chapter on rectangular FG plates demonstrates the book's emphasis on utilizing higher-order shear deformation theories to solve complex engineering challenges. Furthermore, the text lists an extensive table of contents spanning subjects from structural health monitoring to modern composite materials.
