Submitted by Jaafar El-Awady on

On behalf of the Multiscale Materials Modeling (MMM) Executive Board (EB) and the MMM International Advisory Board (IAB) we are delighted to announce the establishment of two new distinguished awards for the multiscale materials modeling community, which will be offered every two years in conjunction with the MMM conference series, to honor those who made notable contributions to the field of multiscale materials modeling.

 

Travel Awards to Attend the 10th International Conference on Multiscale Materials Modeling

Submitted by Jaafar El-Awady on

We are excited to announce the availability of numerous travel awards to attend the "10th International Conference on Multiscale Materials Modeling", to be held in person at at the Renaissance Harborplace Hotel, in Baltimore, MD USA from October 2-7, 2022.

With more than 700 abstracts submitted we are expecting a vibrant and interactive conference. As such, and through funding from a number of funding agencies including (NSF, ONR, AFOSR, etc) we will be able to offer a number of travel awards for students, postdocs, and early career scientists/faculty.

A generalised, multi-phase-field theory for dissolution-driven stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen embrittlement

Submitted by Emilio Martíne… on



Dear iMechanicians - I hope that the following work is of interest. We oresent the first electro-chemo-mechanical model capable of predicting both hydrogen embrittlement and anodic-dissolution driven stress corrosion cracking. In this way, environmentally assisted cracking predictions can be obtained for any choice of environment and without any 'a priori' decision on the governing mechanism. This allows us to simulate for the first time seminal experiments, such as those by Ghrul on Al alloys.
