Upcoming workshop: Oberwolfach workshop on Microstructures in Solids: From Quantum Models to Continua
- Organized (with G. Dal Maso, G. Francfort, and A. Garroni) four special sessions on Damage and Fracture Evolution:
"Recent years have seen great progress in the mathematical treatment of crack and damage propagation in otherwise elastic media. This has in turn led to new computational algorithms and enabled comparison with various experimental results. However, many issues are still outstanding: path prediction in cohesive fracture or in a dynamic setting; the role played by local minimality in quasi-static evolutions; the relevance of rate dependent approximations, to name a few. The aim of this mini-symposium is to bring together scientists from applied mathematics, mechanics, numerics, experiments to discuss the latest advances and challenges."
- Special Session on Variational Models for Advanced Materials, talk: "Gamma convergence for local minimizers."
- Special Session on Free Boundary Problems and Beyond, talk: "Threshold-Based Quasi-Static Brittle Damage Evolution."
- Special Session on Gradient Fields, Stresses, and Free Surfaces in Heterogeneous Materials, talk: "On Cohesive Fracture Without Relaxation."
- Minisymposium on Transport properties of micro-structured media and composite materials, talk: "Threshold-Based Quasi-Static Brittle Damage Evolution."
- Special Session on Mathematical modeling and numerical analysis of fracture phenomena, talk: "Quasi-static evolution in brittle fracture based on local minimization."
- Special Session on Mathematical aspects of materials science: plasticity and fracture, talk: "Energy-dissipation functionals in fracture mechanics: crack branching and the mother-daughter mechanism."
