Call for Abstracts: MS0501 Computational Geomechanics at EMI/PMC 2024

Dear friends of iMechanica,

You are cordially invited to submit an abstract to the Computational Geomechanics Minisymposium (MS 0501) at the 2024 EMI/PMC Conference.

This mini-symposium will provide a forum for presentations and discussions of the state-of-the-art and state-of-the-practice in computational geomechanics. Topics of interest include but are not limited to (1) development, implementation, and validation of advanced constitutive models in geomechanics; (2) particle-based numerical methods (DEM, MD, etc.); (3) computational models and algorithms for multiscale and multiphysics problems; (4) numerical modeling of fracture, damage, and fragmentation processes in geomaterials; (5) local/nonlocal theories and models (mesh-based and mesh-free); (6) applications and case studies of numerical methods in geo-energy and earthquake engineering; (7) validation and verification of numerical models and algorithms in geomechanics; (8) deep learning and data-driven approaches in geomechanics; (9) new challenges and opportunities (geomechanics in extraterrestrial exploration, nature-inspired geomechanics, metamaterials, etc.).
