1216 Microstructure Regulated Mechanics of Materials Under Extreme Dynamic Environments

 

Simulations that map processing-related heterogeneities to material properties and performance in extreme dynamic environments are critical to enable closure of the materials-by-design loop. This minisymposium aims to showcase advanced models and simulations incorporating material heterogeneities from atomistic to continuum, such as, grain boundaries, twin boundaries, dislocations, phase boundaries, multi-material interfaces, cracks, inclusions, amorphized zones. Models and simulations of materials response using particle-based or finite-element methods, incorporating mechanics of a single defect, a collection/network of defects, modeled either explicitly or implicitly within a statistical framework, and any other approaches, are encouraged to submit.
