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.
