BE Doctoral Dissertation Defense: Human organ-on-chip systems for the study of biomechanical forces in health and disease

MEAM Doctoral Dissertation Defense: “Problems in Nonlinear Homogenization: Bounds, Estimates, Macroscopic Instabilities, and Post-Bifurcation Response”
/
Towne 309
220 S. 33rd Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States
This talk is concerned with the use of nonlinear homogenization to study the effective response of composites. We look to illustrate the effect that constitutive assumptions have on the methods […]
