Modeling and Simulation in Engineering Problems
时间：2015年6月10日（三）1:30 pm - 3:30 pm
地点：同济大学（嘉定）德才馆（材料学院）441会议室
Abstract
Due to difficulties in the theoretical and experimental investigations of many engineering problems, numerical modeling and simulation play an important role in capturing the fine structural behavior and revealing the delicate mechanical properties of the engineering structures. This talk will address the application of numerical techniques for simulation and modeling of micro- and nano-scale problems. Numerical discretization of continuum models and the developed multi-scale computational scheme will be discussed.
