Welcome to the Mini-symposium "Creep and Thermo-Mechanical Fatigue" (July 23-26, 2013, Montreal, Canada)

Submitted by Breslavsky on

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you at mini-symposium Creep and Thermo-Mechanical Fatigue within
the 4th Canadian Conference on Nonlinear Solid Mechanics at McGill University (July 23-26,
2013, Montréal, Canada).

The mini-symposium web-page is: http://cancnsm2013.mcgill.ca/ms26.html

We welcome abstract submissions on the following topics:

  • Constitutive models for creep, creep ratcheting and creep-plasticity interactions.
  • Continuum Damage Mechanics and Fracture Mechanics approaches for creep and fatigue damage predictions.
  • Inelastic structural analysis with (non-uniform) thermal and mechanical loadings.
  • Robust methods for creep and fatigue life assessment under service-type loading conditions.

Deadline for submission of abstracts is February 17, 2013.

Organizers of mini-symposium "Creep and Thermo-Mechanical Fatigue":

  •  Jim Boyle (University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK)
  •  Dmitry Breslavsky (National Technical University "Kharkiv Polythechnic Institute", Ukraine)
  •  Konstantin Naumenko (Otto-von-Guericke-University Magdeburg, Germanykonstantin.naumenko [at] ovgu.de)
