Special Session 10 NUMERICAL MODELING OF STRUCTURES (SS10)


The intention of this Special Session is to bring scientists together to discuss different methods of numerical modeling of a wide spectrum of engineering structures, and their applicability in structural engineering.

TOPICS
  • Numerical models for civil engineering materials, such as: wood, concrete, steel, glass, aluminum, plastic, etc.
  • Numerical modeling of non-linear effects in civil engineering materials (yielding, creeping, shrinkage, aging);
  • New and improved numerical models for Structures' behavior
  • Behavior of Structures under various kinds of loads such as: Static loads, Dynamic loads, Special loads (impact load, fire load, etc.), Earthquake
  • Numerical modeling of coupled problems
  • Special investigation on improvement of design and calculating procedures for civil engineering structures (Improvement of codes)
