WelcomeWelcome to the Computational Mechanics of Materials Laboratory at Marquette University. Our overarching goal is to understand, predict and improve materials performance through advancements in materials modeling. Materials drive technology; however, improving modern structural materials is a formidable challenge involving sophisticated techniques, beyond the Edisonian (trail-and-error) approach. Our work strives to use computational modeling to understand the connection between materials microstructure and their properties, build tools to predict materials performance in environments that are difficult to access experimentally, and ultimately transfer this knowledge to materials and product designers. NewsCongratulations! to Dr. Parisa Shabani Nezhad for presenting her Ph.D. dissertation defense on a The effect of microstructural defects and geometrical features on fatigue behavior of superelastic nitinol wires The effects of solid state phase transformation on fatigue is explored in the International Journal of Fatigue |
