This event will be focused on the mechanics of solids and structures with applications to composite materials. The main themes of this workshop are:
- Multiscale experimental and computational approaches for design (multiscale computational techniques, model coupling, non-local models, hierarchical approaches, homogenization, multiscale strategies for optimizing material formulations, hybrid nano/micro/meso scale materials, and multifunctional composites).
- Inverse problems for non-destructive control and health monitoring of composite structures (2D/3D digital image correlation-based identification, identification techniques for interfaces in joints/laminates, monitoring techniques for composite structures, impedance based tomography).
- Durability of materials and structures (aging of polymer composites under various environments, aging problems for structures, multi-physics prediction tools).
Join us at this international forum to foster discussion and collaboration in the field of computational and experimental mechanics of advanced materials.
The workshop is being organized by Gilles Lubineau (KAUST), Glaucio H. Paulino (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, US), and Marco Alfano (University of Calabria, Italy).
