Book excerpt: A series of international conferences, Coupled Instabilities in Metal Structures, was launched in 1992 with the main aim of encouraging an exchange of views between researchers and engineers on the various aspects of coupled instabilities. The success of the first conference, held at Timisoara (Romania) in 1992, and organized by Professors D. Dubina and V. Gioncu (Politechnica University of Timisoara) and J. Rondal (University of Liege), has encouraged the organization of a second conference, to be held in Liege (Belgium) during September 5-7, 1996.
