Composites

The abstract submission for the 24th International Workshop on

Computational Mechanics of Materials (IWCMM 24) in Madrid, Spain, on

October 1st-3rd, 2014 is now opened. The deadline for abstract

submission is June 15th, 2014.



The workshop is intended to cover all aspects of modeling and

simulations of the mechanical behavior at different length and time

scales. The materials of interest range from traditional materials such

as metals, alloys, polymers and composites to advanced and emerging

model reduction, mesh burden reduction, mesh burden, mesh, multiscale fracture, polycrystals, delamination, surgical simulation http://orbilu.uni.lu/handle/10993/16404 http://orbilu.uni.lu/bitstream/10993/16404/2/20140422_HannoverGermany.m…

Position is available for a postdoctoral fellow to carry out an industry sponsored project on carbon fiber composite modeling. The contract is initiated for one year, with possible extension if work progresses satisfactorily. The research will focus on



 (1)  micromechanics modeling of elastic and viscoplastic behavior of injection molded carbon fiber composites;

 (2)  homogenization techniques and constitutive model development for vibration, strength and impact simulations of carbon fiber composites.

The above minisymposium is organised
at the 11th World Congress on Computational Mechanics in Barcelona
(Spain), July 20 - 25, 2014 (http://www.wccm-eccm-ecfd2014.org/frontal/default.asp).
