3 Minisymposia on FFM and PF at the conf. CFRAC2023 – Prague

SUMARY

Designers of engineering structures must respond to ever increasing demands on performance in terms of safety, reliability, durability, low cost and low energy consumption. As new materials and new applications emerge, traditional design rules and conventional testing methods become insufficient or inapplicable, which strengthens the role of computational methods in the design process. Numerical tools can accelerate the development of new products and their optimization.

The purpose of CFRAC 2023 is to bring together academic researchers and industrial partners involved in the development and application of numerical procedures for fracture and failure simulation of materials and structures, in an effort to facilitate the exchange of ideas in topics of mutual interest and to serve as a platform for establishing links among research groups in Europe and worldwide.

GENERAL SCHEDULE & PROGRAM

The scientific program of CFRAC 2023 is composed of 5 plenary lectures», a special fracture benchmark and 13 minisymposia devoted to various topics within the general theme of computational fracture and failure. Each minisymposium will feature one or more sessions, typically with 5 or 6 presentations per session. The list below contains the title of each minisymposium and the names of its organizers.
