The objective of GISTEAMMM is to characterize the grain structure generated by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) process at track scale: one track or single wall with several tracks, in which the grain structures will be obtained by both experiment and thermo-metallurgical-mechanical modelling. The anisotropic elastic-viscoplastic material laws at grain levels are expected to be extracted by considering the influence of inherent residual stress generated during printing process.

The Center for Material Forming (Cemef) at Mines Paris (PSL University) is looking for a candidate for a PhD position on the computational modeling of sheet metal forming.

The project focuses on remeshing strategies for localized strain phenomena in automobile applications.

The industrial partner is for the moment undisclosed.

For a given class of materials, universal deformations are those that can be maintained in the absence of body forces by applying only boundary tractions.  Universal deformations play a crucial role in nonlinear elasticity.

Dear Professor,

We are inviting chapters for our proposed book on “Smart Technologies for Improved Performance of Manufacturing Systems and Services”.
