Dr. Mark Oliver and Dr. Sean Teller will be presenting and the NAFEMS World Congress, taking place May 19-22 in Salzburg, Austria. Dr. Oliver will be presenting on “Techniques for Inverse Calibration of Cohesive Zone Models”. Dr. Teller will be presenting on “Rate and Pressure-Dependent Failure Modeling of Thermoplastics“. Further information on these presentations can be found at https://www.nafems.org/congress/
Allyson Hartzell co-chaired the Mechanical Reliability session, provided a one-hour tutorial on “Reliability Considerations for Flexible Hybrid Electronics" as part of the Structural and Physical Health Monitoring track, and more.
MEMS expert Allyson Hartzell addressed the challenges functional fabric developers face in accommodating sensors in their products with clever new interconnects such as conductive fabrics and bendable electronics.
Dr. Alireza Kermani offered a webinar describing how to investigate airflow patterns and prevent airborne transmission, and explaining the benefits of CFD simulation in ventilation systems studies.
Modeling a complex thermomechanical process, such as welding, requires the inclusion of several coupled physics phenomena. The webinar described how multiphysics modeling enabled a simulation of a valve welding process, which was needed to determine how a toxic leak developed.
Dr. Sean Teller spoke about “High Strain Rate Testing and Material Modeling of an Anisotropic Glass Fiber Filled Polyetherimide” at the 15th LS-DYNA International Conference and Users Meeting.
At COMSOL Day Boston, Dr. Nagi Elabbasi spoke about Multiphysics Simulation in Medical Devices and Bioengineering and Dr. Matthew Hancock spoke about Modeling and Simulation of Microfluidic Devices.
Allyson Hartzell co-chaired the “MEMS, Sensor, IoT and Flex” session of ECTC 2018, the annual conference of the IEEE Electronic Components and Technology Conference in San Diego, CA.
Dr. Mark Oliver participated in the “Additive Manufacturing: Design, Test, and 3D Print for Production” session at ANTEC 2018, and Dr. Sean Teller participated in the “Engineering Properties and Structure: Innovations in Polyolefins and Plastics” session.
Veryst has released a new version of the PolyUMod library of advanced material models and the MCalibration parameter extraction software with significant new features.
