Further DFG project approved
We are pleased to announce that the German Research Foundation (DFG) has approved the project "Multiscale modelling of metallic glass by a direct coarse-graining from the atomic scale to the continuum level".
In cooperation with the Institute of General Mechanics (IAM) at RWTH Aachen University, we are pursuing the goal of developing a continuum mechanical description of metallic glasses that takes into account the local nanoscopic topology of the material. It is planned to use a direct coarse-graining method to transfer the atomic properties obtained from molecular dynamics simulations to the macroscale elasto-plasticity framework, which is solved via FEM.
We are looking forward to the work with Franz Bamer from IAM!
