Micromechanics Simulation Challenge

As the importance of micromechanics is increasingly realized in composites design & manufacturing at the industry level, cdmHUB is launching a Micromechanics Simulation Challenge for the purpose of establishing the best practices for homogenization and dehomogenization needed in composites design and manufacturing. The Micromechanics Simulation Challenge consists of 3 levels with increasing complexities, each with benchmark-type problems  to access the strengths and trade-offs of existing micromechanics codes. We are currently defining level 1 problems and soliciting comments from micromechanics tool developers and other interested parties. Any inputs from the imechanica community will be greatly appreciated. More details can be found at: https://cdmhub.org/members/1582/blog/2014/09/micromechanics-challenge.
