On behalf of the organizing committee, it is our pleasure to announce the 12th iteration of the Computational Materials Science Summer School at Texas A&M University, CMS3.

3rd Winter school on

Trends on Additive Manufacturing for Engineering Applications

Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Univ. of Belgrade, Serbia  & Online

5th-9th February 2023

Participation in the winter school is free!

Structured PhD in Applied Mathematics (4-years full-time)

Project topic: Prediction of the plastic yielding of additively manufactured Steel 316L: Development and validation of a physics-informed mathematical model

Project supervisors: Dr. Doireann O’Kiely, Dr. Kyriakos Kourousis and Professor Michael Vynnycky.

In the works below, an isogeometric analysis combined with adjoint sensitivity analysis is used for the design of mechancial metamaterials. A detailed introduction to isogeometric analysis (IGA), formulation and implementation of adjoint sensitivity analysis in the nonlinear regime for auxetics design is included in the thesis and papers below. The work presents a holistic physics-based approach for structural shape optimization using IGA. Kindly cite the work if you find useful. 

Publications:

Many types of composites are used in Printed Circuit Boards (PCB). Virtual Material Testing can help to find optimal materials properties to match various design requirements resulting in a faster design process and increased product life.

In this course you will fully learn how to incorporate new materials informatics methods into your own material modeling, analysis and design processes in order to capitalize on recent AI breakthroughs, such as language models (e.g. GPT-3, BERT, LaMDA, etc.), DNA and protein models (e.g., AlphaFold), graph neural networks applied from molecular to macroscale structures, and a host of methods adapted for computer vision including diffusion models (as used in DALL-E 2 or Imagen), specifically for the analysis, design and modeling of materials. The course involves a mix of lectures, hands-on labs and clinics for an immersive experience. Participants will learn fundamentals and techniques to deploy machine learning in materials development and gain first-hand understanding of state-of-the art tools for varied applications ranging from data mining to inverse design. We will cover scales from the molecular to the continuum.

"Finite Element Method: Physics and Solution Methods" aims to provide the reader a sound understanding of the physical systems and solution methods to enable effective use of this method. I hope that the mechanics community will find this book useful.

Two advanced courses are offered at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague in the first half of September 2022: Modeling of Localized Inelastic Deformation (LID 2022), delivered by Milan Jirásek from 5 to 9 September, and the

I would like to bring to your attention an intensive three-day course "Invitation to nondestructive evaluation and structural health monitoring" that will be given by Dr. Zahra Sharif Khodaei (Imperial College London) from Tuesday, 24 May, to Thursday, 26 May 2022, at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague.

Dear All,

The 33rd Annual Robert J. Melosh Competition for the Best Student Paper in Computational Mechanics will be held at Duke University on October 21st, 2022.

We will be teaching a short course on residual stress on June 12, 2022 at the SEM Experimental Mechanics conference in Pittsburgh. 

See below and https://sem.org/annual (under PROGRAMS/COURSES) for details.

Residual stress short courses don't happen too often. The course should be appropriate for students, industrialists, and researchers. Hope you can make it. The proceeds all benefit SEM.

Residual Stress 101

After the first two successful editions in 2015 and 2019, with the
enthusiastic participation of students and young researchers from all over the world, the third
edition of the international Summer School on Fatigue and Damage Mechanics of Composites
will be held in Vicenza (Italy) from the 4th to the 8th of July 2022. The venue is the Department
of Management and Engineering, campus of the University of Padova in Vicenza. The School has
already received the patronage of ESCM (the European Society for Composite Materials), AIAS
(the Italian Society for Mechanical Design), Assocompositi (the Italian Association of Composite
Industries) and IGF (the Italian Group of Fracture).
The School aims at providing young scientists and engineers both from Academia and Industry
with the unique opportunity to meet and learn from leading international experts about
advances in the fatigue and damage mechanics of polymer-based composite materials.
Based on the experience and the feedback received after the first editions, the format will be
improved with more tailored theoretical sections, hands-on activities and the presentation of
industrial application cases provided by experts of leading worldwide companies. Particular
attention will be always devoted to the understanding of damage mechanisms and the paths to
incorporate them into predictive models.
During the five-day program, senior researchers and industry representatives will provide
lectures on experimental techniques for damage investigations, damage evolution under
fatigue, analytical and numerical damage modelling, structural health monitoring and examples
of design against damage in advanced industrial applications.
