Background

Following the successful organization of the First and Second International Conference on Mechanics of Advanced Materials and Structures in University of Torino, Italy (2018) and Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, China (2019), respectively, we are pleased to host the Third International Conference on Mechanics of Advanced Materials and Structures (ICMAMS2023) at Texas A&M University, College Station, TX. The conference is being organized by the TEES Center of Innovation in Mechanics for Design and Manufacturing and the venue is Texas A&M Hotel and Conference Center on the campus of Texas A&M University. 

Aim of the Conference

The objectives of the conference are to provide a forum for researchers from academia, research laboratories, and industry from all over the world who are interested in the field of mechanics of advanced materials and structures to share their research findings and exchange ideas and to provide networking opportunities among participants. The conference should forge cooperative links between researches and practicing engineers by bringing them together to understand and address technical challenges facing industry in dealing with materials design, structural analysis, and manufacturing. 

Selected papers from this conference will be published as thematic special issues of the MAMS (Mechanics of Advanced Materials and Structures) and CMESM (Computational Methods in Engineering Science and Mechanics) journal, as appropriate.

Theme and Topics

The theme of ICMAMS2023 is “Integrated Computational Mechanics of Materials and Structures” with focus on architected materials and structures, nonlocal mechanics, damage and fracture, process optimization, additive and custom manufacturing, and machine learning.

Authors/speakers are encouraged to submit papers on the role of theoretical, computational and experimental mechanics in the study of:

  • Composite and architected materials
  • Materials design and manufacturing
  • Micro and nano-scale phenomena
  • Multi-field coupled problems
  • Multi-functional materials and structures
  • Structural and process optimization
  • Energy harvesting technologies
  • Metamaterials
  • Smart systems with integrated functionalities
  • Soft matter
  • High-fidelity simulations
  • Additive and custom manufacturing
  • Machine learning and data science
  • Fuel cell technologies
  • Damage, fracture, and fatigue
  • Constitutive models at various scales
  • Dynamics and vibrations
  • Fluid-solid interactions
  • Multifunctional materials
  • Structure-property relationships
  • Hypervelocity impact and high energy
  • Modeling of biomaterials

Papers on integration of models of various processes, integration of models across multiple length scales, integration of design and manufacturing, integration of models with experiments, and integration of mathematical models, computational approaches, and experimental techniques to address multi-physics and multi-scale problems will receive attention. Further, papers on new methods and paradigms in theoretical, computational, and experimental mechanics (including non-classical and non-local mechanics), peridynamics, and use of machine learning and data science in mechanics are also highly encouraged.
