To be held on June 25, immediately after the MAFELAP 2003 conference
(www.brunel.ac.uk/~icsrbicm/mafelap03), this workshop will focus
on nonlinear modelling and subsequent computational simulation of
viscoelastic solid polymers. The invited speakers are:
RA Schapery (Texas)
Constitutive modelling of nonlinear viscoelastic solids
OG Harlen (Leeds)
Molecular models of viscoelastic flows
HT Banks (NCSU)
Molecular-based continuum models for tensile deformations of rubber
AR Johnson (US Army)
An approximate dissipation function for large strain rubber
thermo-mechanical analysis
A Tessler (NASA)
Computationally suitable hierarchical higher-order bending theories
modelling complete through-thickness deformation
The workshop will take place in Brunel's Graduate School
(Uxbridge campus, room PH055) beginning at 9:00AM and finishing
at 5:30PM. There is no charge for attendance but participants will be expected to meet their own travel and lunch costs. |
