Professor Olgierd C Zienkiewicz was instrumental in setting up the association in 1992 and was association honorary president for the rest of his life.
The Association was formed in March 1992 to both promote research in computational mechanics within the UK, and to establish formal links with similar organisations in Europe and worldwide. The Association is affiliated to the European organisation ECCOMAS and the international organisation IACM.
The principal activity of ACME involves the organisation of an annual two day conference on computational mechanics, developments and research trends. The purpose of this Conference is to provide a forum for reviewing the computational mechanics activities in any area of mechanics - solid, fluid, gas, bio, geo, etc with a particular emphasis on interdisciplinary aspects to enable cross-fertilization to take place between different disciplines.
There is also a jiscmail discussion list devoted to the discussion on subject matters concerning compuational mechanics in engineering.
