Equilibrium and stability analysis of slender elastic rods
New interesting challenges arise in the mechanics of slender elastic rods with the burgeoning of new scientific fields such as soft materials, nanotechnologies, stretchable electronics or even physical computer animation. One of the common emerging concerns is the efficient modeling of the very large deformations of these structures, often in atypical surrounding environments. In this talk, I will present some original and relatively simple numerical tools and models, based on a dynamical system approach, to compute and follow the equilibrium and stability of slender elastic rods. Notably, I will show the relevance and performance of our methods in various mechanical problems, from the self-oscillations of a nanowire in field emission to the physics of a curly hair or the design of piezoelectric beams as frequency multipliers.

Séminaire PMMH - Francesca Borghi Università degli Studi di Milano
Vendredi 20 juin de 11h00 à 12h00 - Salle réunion PMMH 1
REPROGRAMMABLE HARDWARE FOR DATA PROCESSING AT THE EDGE : A NEW COMPUTING PARADIGM BASED ON NEUROMORPHIC SYSTEMS
The brain's ability to perform efficient and fault-tolerant data processing is strongly related with its peculiar interconnected adaptive architecture, based on redundant neural circuits interacting at different scales. By emulating the brain's processing and learning mechanisms, computing technologies strive to (…) -

Vendredi 4 juillet de 11h00 à 12h00 - Salle réunion PMMH 1
Continuum Mechanics of Hydrated Fibre-Reinforced Soft Tissues
Biological tissues can be represented as bi-phasic continua, with a porous solid phase saturated by an interstitial fluid and reinforced by collagen fibers. This lecture will give an overview of the modelling techniques for fibre-reinforced porous composite materials with statistical orientation of the fibers. Both (…) -

The audience is composed of people with rather heterogeneous backgrounds including specialists in solids, fluids, granular flows, statistical physics... so the idea is to keep your talk understandable by people not necessarily working in your field... The seminar time slot runs from 11am to noon so the best is to make the talk last around 45 minutes to leave some time for discussion.
