Objectives:


The scope of the IV ECCOMAS Thematic Conference on the Mechanical Response of Composites is the scientific investigation of the complex mechanical behaviour of composite materials and structures. The conference focuses mainly on theoretical and numerical modelling and prediction of the performance of composite components, covering also experimental validation and challenging industrial applications of recent developments.
