International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics

The International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM) is an international non-governmental scientific organization whose primary mission is to promote theoretical and applied mechanics as a scientific discipline, especially by organizing international congresses, symposia and summer schools. IUTAM was established in 1946 in Paris but actually originates from the series of International Applied Mechanics Conferences (ICAM), the first of which was held in Delft in 1924. In 2022, IUTAM was registered as a Dutch association, domiciled in Amsterdam. IUTAM is a member of the International Science Council and thereby contributes to a global voice on science.
