Focus Areas/Scope of Activities of the Group
The Solid Mechanics Working Group members are working to expand and promote the group and encourage communication among faculty involved in solid mechanics research, education, materials science and aerospace. The group hosts outstanding speakers in these fields to bring progressive insight to attendees on the new trends in the solid mechanics, materials and composite material manufacturing fields. We are developing the program of study to include broad and novel educational courses featuring design throughout the curriculum for graduate and undergraduate students giving rise to a diverse group of future engineers/scientists.
Achievements
- Designing a plan for Curriculum Development and the continuation of the ICME Education Course.
- Integrating this information into mechanical engineering courses.
- Hosted several highly acclaimed speakers in the mechanical/modeling field.
- Three Biennial Symposiums of Predictive Science and Technology in Mechanics and Materials (2008, 2010, 2012).
Join Our Group
The Solid Mechanics Working Group is a diversified group of individuals whose objectives are to embolden communication among faculty engaged in solid mechanics research, education, materials science and aerospace.
We encourage those in the engineering community who wish to be involved to contact Mark Horstemeyer.
