Prof. Christoph Kirchlechner and Jon Molina are organizing a symposium on “EXPERIMENTAL NANOMECHANICS” at the EMMC19 conference (19thEuropean Mechanics of Materials Conference), which will take place on May 29th-31st, 2024 in Madrid, Spain (http://emmc19.org/symposium-s13.html).
This symposium aims to bring together the research community in micro- and nano-mechanics, particularly those adopting interdisciplinary approaches, with the objective of gaining insights into the small scale mechanical behavior of structural, biological and/or functional materials and structures. The targeted topics are:
- Nanoindentation, microbending, micropillar compression and others
- Testing of nanostructures, thin-films and coatings
- Interface and grain boundary phenomena
- Time-resolved in situ SEM, EBSD, AFM, X-Ray/synchrotron and TEM mechanical testing
- In operando and in vitro micro- and nanomechanical testing
- Deformation mechanisms and fracture phenomema bridging lenth scales
- Testing under extreme conditions (high and low temperature, high strain rates, hydrogen environments, radiation,…)
Please note the deadline for the abstract submission (http://emmc19.org/submissions.html) has been extended (January 14th).
Hope to see you there!
