Prof. Jie Yin of Temple University has been selected as the recipient of the 2017 EML Young Investigator Award for his paper "Design of cut unit geometry in hierarchical kirigami-based auxetic metamaterials for high stretchability and compressibility" in EML 12, pp77-85 (2017). Congratulations!
The talk "Controlling the toughness and strength of random fiber networks" by R.C. Picu and S. Deogekar has been moved to session 12-7-1, Quantitative Visualization in Experimental Mechanics, scheduled November 06, 2017, 10:30AM - 12:15PM.
Dear Colleagues,
We cordially invite you to present your research work at the mini-symposium – “MODELLING OF MICROSTRUCTURE-DEPENDENT DAMAGE AND FRACTURE OF HETEROGENEOUS MATERIALS” at the 13th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (New York City, from July 22 to 27 of 2018). The session ID is 225 (Link: http://www.wccm2018.org/MS_225).
Submission deadline: December 31, 2017. Session description is given below. We look forward to your contribution in this min-symposium.
Best regards
There are two polar contemporary approaches to the constitutive modeling of arterial wall with anisotropy induced by collagen fibers. The first one is based on the angular integration (AI) of the strain energy on a unit sphere for the analytically defined fiber dispersion. The second one is based on the introduction of the generalized structure tensors (GST). AI approach is very involved computationally while GST approach requires somewhat complicated procedure for the exclusion of compressed fibers.
