Features: The "Research Report on the Development of the Mechanics Discipline" elaborates on the characteristics and development status of the mechanics discipline as a whole, as well as from the perspectives of five branch disciplines: dynamics and control, solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, biomechanics, and environmental mechanics. It covers aspects such as the priority areas for funding, the layout and analysis of scientific fund support. The report proposes the view that as a strongly applied fundamental discipline, the mechanics discipline should further strengthen basic research under the national demand context. It also provides recommendations and measures to promote the development of the mechanics discipline in China. This research report can serve as a reference for relevant departments and science and technology management personnel when making scientific decisions, and can also be used as a reference for researchers in universities and research institutions in China who conduct research in the field of mechanics and related disciplines.
