    WAVES AND STABILITY IN CONTINUOUS MEDIA
    Proceedings of the 14th Conference on WASCOM 2007
    Baia Samuele, Sicily, Italy, 30 June – 7 July 2007

    edited by N Manganaro (Università di Messina, Italy), R Monaco (Politecnico di Torino, Italy), & S Rionero (Università di Napoli, Italy)

    Table of Contents (250k)
    Preface (83k)
    Chapter 1: Reciprocal Transformations and Integrable Hamiltonian Hydrodynamic Type Systems (334k)

    This volume is the fifth in a series of proceedings which started in 1999. The contributions include the latest results on the theory of wave propagation, extended thermodynamics, and the stability of the solutions to partial differential equations.
