Scientific Objectives
During the last decades material modelling has become
a field of central scientific importance. Although there
exist many workshops, meetings, colloquia etc. on
particular aspects, specific materials, particular
applications, a single conference dedicated to material
modelling in all its various facets is lacking. To this end,
the aim of the conference is to bring together researchers
from the various fields of material modelling including
materials characterization. The intention here is to cover
essentially all aspects of material modelling. This will
provide the opportunity for interaction among and
exchange between scientists working in different
subareas of material mechanics who otherwise would
not come into contact with each other.
