Abstract

Exploiting the framework of peridynamics, a dimensionally-reduced formulation for plates is developed that allows for the through-thickness nucleation and growth of fracture surfaces,

 Dear colleagues,

Allow me to bring to your attention the 3rd edition of the International Workshop on Plasticity, Damage and Fracture of Engineering Materials, to be held in Istambul on October 4-6, 2023 (Link) 

Dear Colleagues,

I invite you to read our recent publication on Acta Materialia on the dynamic hardness evolution in metals.

I. Introduction

In this paper we formulate and solve the initial-boundary value problem of accreting circular cylindrical bars under finite extension. We assume that the bar grows by printing stress-free cylindrical layers on its boundary cylinder while it is undergoing a time-dependent finite extension. Accretion induces eigenstrains, and consequently residual stresses. We formulate the anelasticity problem by first constructing the natural Riemannian metric of the growing bar. This metric explicitly depends on the history of deformation during the accretion process.

Dear Colleagues,

Euromech Colloquium CELLULAR MECHANOBIOLOGY AND MORPHOGENESIS

Dear Colleagues,

It gives us great pleasure to announce the Euromech Colloquium “CELLULAR MECHANOBIOLOGY AND MORPHOGENESIS” to be held in Sirmione, Italy, 21-24 August 2023 (https://638.euromech.org/).

Jessica  Zhang, Alireza Tabarraei, Kathryn Maupin, and myself are organizing a mini-symposium on “Data-Enabled Predictive Modeling, Machine Learning, and Uncertainty Quantification in Computational Mechanics,” in the ASME IMECE 2023 (October 29 – November 2, 2023). The symposium solicits abstracts on novel scientific machine learning (SciML) and uncertainty quantification (UQ) methods a wide range of applications across science, engineering, and medicine.

Given the success of our KTH Computational Biomechanics Summer School last year, I'm pleased to inform that the registration for the 2nd edition is now open. Please find all information at
