MMM10 (2-7 October 2022, Baltimore) Symposium #13: Mechanics and Physics of Material Failure

Dear Colleagues,
The 10th International Conference on Multiscale Materials Modeling (MMM 10) will be held during 2-7 October 2022 at the Renaissance Harborplace Hotel, in Baltimore, Maryland, USA.

We are organizing a symposium on the Mechanics and Physics of Material Failure (Symposium #13).

The symposium serves as a platform to share knowledge gained from experimental, theoretical, and computational aspects of damage evolution in advanced engineering materials over a range of length- and time-scales. Modeling frameworks of interest include: atomistic, mesoscale methods (e.g. discrete-continuum mechanics), and homogenization-based continuum micromechanics including problems in multi-physics environments. We welcome approaches that embed statistical features in failure micromechanics. Of particular interest are talks that provide fundamental insights into the physics of failure processes through state-of-the-art experiments, especially those incorporating multi-physics (e.g. thermo- or chemo-mechanical) coupling, full-field data acquisition, and advanced microscopy.

We invite you to present your work at our symposium. The submission link ishttps://mmm10-submissions.usacm.org/(Symposium #13) and the due date for abstract submission is 30 April 2022. We look forward to your participation in this symposium at MMM10.
