CFRAC 2013 : Computational Modeling of Fracture and Failure of Materials and Structures

[Victorio Sonzogni]

Desde: 05-06-2013
Hasta:  07-06-2013
Lugar:   Prague, Czech Republic

Third International Conference on Computational Modeling of Fracture and
Failure of Materials and Structures – CFRAC 2013  
(Czech Technical University, Prague, Czech Republic, June 5 – 7, 2013)
An ECCOMAS Thematic Conference ( <http://www.eccomas.org> www.eccomas.org)

 

Designers of engineering structures must respond to ever increasing demands
on performance in terms of safety, reliability, durability, low cost and low
energy consumption. As new materials and new applications emerge,
traditional design rules and conventional testing methods become
insufficient or inapplicable, which strengthens the role of computational
methods in the design process. Numerical tools can accelerate the
development of new products and their optimization.

 

The purpose of CFRAC 2013 is to bring together academic researchers and
industrial partners involved in the development and application of numerical
procedures for fracture and failure simulation of materials and structures,
in an effort to facilitate the exchange of ideas in topics of mutual
interest and to serve as a platform for establishing links among research
groups in Europe and worldwide.
