Abstracts for USNCCM 2019 are due today! 

We cordially invite you to present your work in the thematic session “Advances and Applications in Meshfree and Particle Methods” as part of the 15th US National Congress on Computational Mechanics (USNCCM15) to be held July 28 - August 1, 2019 in Austin, Texas. The minisymposium is listed as MS# 301 on the submission website. Abstract submission is now open. To submit an abstract, please visit:

https://submissions15.usnccm.org/

Please be aware that the deadline for abstract submission is January 15th, 2019. Further details on the conference and abstract submission can be found at the conference website:

http://15.usnccm.org/

The goal of this minisymposium is to bring together experts working on these methods, share research results and identify the emergent needs towards more rapid progress in advancing the important fields of meshfree and particle methods. Topics of interest for this minisymposium include, but are not limited to the following:

• Recent advances in meshfree and particle methods, coupling of finite element and meshfree methods, smoothed particle hydrodynamics, and peridynamics
• Methods coupling multiple physics and/or multiple scales
• Methods of fictitious domains and non-intrusive coupling
• Strong form collocation methods
• Nodal integration and domain integration methods for the Galerkin formulation
• Characterization and stabilization of numerical instabilities
• Recent advances in modeling strong and weak discontinuities
• Recent advances in modeling extreme loading events
• Recent advances in modeling manufacturing problems
• Recent advances in modeling bio- and nano- mechanics problems
• Nonlocal mechanics and computation
• Parallel computation, solvers and large-scale simulations
• New applications

We look forward to receiving your abstract submission.

Dear Colleagues,

We cordially invite you to present your work in the thematic session “Meshfree, Peridynamics, and Particle Methods: Contemporary Methods and Applications” as part of the 2019 Engineering Mechanics Institute Conference (EMI 2019) to be held June 18-21, 2019 at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, California. The minisymposium is listed as MS#17 on the submission website. Abstract submission is now open. To submit an abstract, please visit:

http://emi2019.exordo.com 

Please be aware that the deadline for abstract submission is January 30th, 2019. Further details on the conference and abstract submission can be found at the conference website:

This session aims to promote collaboration among academia, government, and industry in the development and application of meshfree, peridynamics, and particle methods, to share recent advances, lessons learned, and to transfer knowledge. This minisymposium will solicit all subjects related to development of these methods, which include, but are not limited to, the following:
  • Fundamental developments
  • Handling stationary and transient strong and weak discontinuities
  • Formulations for extreme material distortion, fragmentation, contact and impact, and material instability
  • Numerical integration
  • Strong form collocation meshfree methods
  • Rank stability, kernel stability, and other stability issues
  • Simulation of classes of problems for which meshfree, peridynamics, and particle methods are superior to conventional mesh-based methods
  • Parallel-computing, scalable algorithms, and large-scale simulations
  • Multiple and coupled physics
  • Multiple time and/or length scales
  • Multi-phase (solid, fluid and gas) interactions
  • Structural responses to extreme loading conditions such as blast, impact, and penetration
  • Simulation of natural disasters like tsunamis, earthquakes, and landslides
  • Simulation of manufacturing processes
  • Simulation of bio and nano mechanics and material system responses

We look forward to receiving your abstract submission.

One year grant: Development of a numerical method called the Discrete-Continuum Particle Method (DCPM) for simulating arbitrary three-dimensional fracture while capturing essential failure mechanisms in concrete microstructures. This new numerical method provides a novel framework for naturally converting a continuum discretization into a discrete network of arbitrary fractures with embedded contact for capturing the complex kinematics of failure in geomaterials.
