VFM course with focus on high strain rate identification

Submitted by Fabrice Pierron on

On September 3-4 2018 at the University of Southampton, there will be a 2-day intensice course on the Virtual Fields Method (VFM) with special focus on transient dynamics, with a view to identify mechanical properties of materials at high strain rates from full-field measurements using ultra-high speed imaging. This is part of the PhotoDyn project: www.photodyn.org. The programme can be downloaded here.

CSME International Congress - Advanced Manufacturing Symposium

Submitted by Hamid.Akbarzadeh on

Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineers International Congress, will be held in Toronto, Ontario at York University. The forum provides a unique opportunity to disseminate research themes, results, and new technologies. It also facilitates networking, among universities, industry, government agencies.

The Manufacturing Symposium covers all topics related to subtractive and additive (3D printing) manufacturing for design and fabrication of advanced lightweight materials, advanced composites, architected materials, and multifunctional materials and structures.
