Special Session 2 PLASTICITY AND CONSTITUTIVE MODELLING (SS2)
This special session focuses on constitutive modelling of materials. Aspects such as new relationships, parameter identification, experimental methods and computational simulation are covered. The session is focused but not limited to non-linear behaviour (plasticity) and addresses further aspects such as visco-plasticity, behaviour under large strains/deformations etc.
TOPICS
- Materials Characterisation,
- Modelling and Simulation,
- Experimental Testing,
- Advanced Materials
