10th
Annual US-France Symposium
17-19 May 2017, Ft Walton Beach, Fl.
Welcome,
The symposium will be
co-hosted by the Department of
Mechanical and
Aerospace Engineering, University of Florida’s Research Engineering and
Education Institute (REEF) in Shalimar, FL, USA and the Air Force
Research Laboratory (AFRL/RW), Eglin, FL, USA. It is
the
10th in a series of US-France symposia
of the International
Center for Applied Computational Mechanics (ICACM). The ICACM is a
partnership between several American
and French Universities with the scope of promoting joint research at
the forefront of computational mechanics.
The focus of this 10th
symposium is on the latest advances in experimental, theoretical, and
computational mechanics aimed at understanding dynamic damage and
fragmentation. Materials of interest include metallic materials,
geological materials (soils, concrete), energetic and biological
materials.
Prof. O. Cazacu, University of Florida/REEF (Chair)
Dr. Crystal Pasiliao, Air
