Caglar Oskay delivered an invited lecture at Duke University
Dec. 4, 2017—Lecture Title: Bridging Computational Materials Science and Structural Mechanics: A New Paradigm for Predictive Simulation Location: Civil and Environmental Engineering Department, Duke University. Abstract: Over the past couple of decades, tremendous effort has been devoted to the development of multiscale computational modeling and simulation strategies for physics-based prediction of structural response. Among these strategies, concurrent...
Rudra Bhattacharrya, Ruize Hu and Xiang Zhang presented their research at ASME IMECE 2017 in Tampa, FL
Nov. 15, 2017—The title of the Xiaoyu’s presentation was: “Mesh Objective Multiscale Damage Modeling for Fiber-Composites Subjected to Multi-Axial Loading”. Abstract: The damage accumulation and progression in structural components made of fiber-reinforced composites is complicated due to the interactions between complex microstructural damage mechanisms. In particular, the internal stress states within a laminated composite are multidimensional even...

Sep. 25, 2017—Lecture Title: A Reduced Order Multiscaling Paradigm for Predictive Simulation of Large-Scale Engineering Structures Location: Solid Mechanics Group and Multiscale Science Group, Sandia National Laboratory. Abstract: Over the past couple of decades, tremendous effort has been devoted to the development of multiscale computational modeling and simulation strategies for physics-based prediction of structural response. Among these...
Xiang Zhang successfully defended his PhD dissertation. Congratulations Dr. Zhang!
Aug. 30, 2017—The title of Dr. Zhang’s dissertation is: “Reduced Order Modeling and Multiscale Investigations of High Performance Alloys under Monotonic and Cyclic Loading Conditions”
Xiaoyu Zhang, Ruize Hu and Xiang Zhang presented their research at USNCCM’14 in Montreal, Canada
Jul. 20, 2017—The title of the Xiaoyu’s presentation was: “Material and Morphology Parameter Sensitivity Analysis in Particulate Composite Materials”. Abstract: We present a novel parameter sensitivity analysis framework for damage and failure modeling of particulate composite materials subjected to dynamic loading. The proposed framework is employed to quantify the sensitivity of the failure response of energetic materials...
