2015 IIMEC Summer School on Advanced Material Systems: Experimentation and Modeling

On behalf of the International Institute for Multifunctional Materials for Energy Conversion (IIMEC) and the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, we would like to announce a summer school on Advanced Material Systems: Experimentation and Modeling. The summer school will be held from July 13–18, 2015 on the Aristotle University campus in Thessaloniki, Greece. 

The scope of this one-week summer school is to familiarize students with the state of the art in advanced composite materials production, testing, constitutive law modeling, micromechanics and homogenization methods and theory. 

The target audience for the 2015 IIMEC Summer School is graduates and junior researchers (PhD students, postdocs). The idea is for each day to have a theoretical session in the morning, followed by hands-on materials testing and computer simulations in the afternoon. The industrial visit to Alumil-CFT and the full day training to BETA CAE Systems’ software packages will offer a unique experience to the participants.

Should you be interested in attending the summer school, we are looking forward to receiving your electronic application by June, 15.
