DESCRIPTION:Students and faculty members in Æ»¹ûÒùÔº's Faculty of Agricultura
 l and Environmental Sciences are invited to attend a mini course\, Theory 
 and Numerical Analysis of Nonlinear Elastic and Viscoelastic Material Mode
 ls\, held by the Department of Bioresource Engineering. From April 22 to 2
 6\, we will meet in the Raymond Building from 3pm to 5pm.\n\nThe seminar a
 ims to introduce nonlinear elastic and viscoelastic material models that r
 epresent state of the art modeling for solid polymers. Long lasting practi
 cal experiences of industrial applications will be shared ranging from sof
 t tissue modeling in biomedical engineering to critical applications of el
 astomer and thermoplastic components in mechanical engineering. Besides ad
 vanced material modeling special emphasis will be given to specific requir
 ements in finite element modeling for nonlinear materials. Eventually\, a 
 link to current research activities is provided by presenting a structure-
 property correlation for elastomeric vulcanizates that allows a priori det
 ermination of mechanical material properties from elastomeric rubber compo
 und ingredients without material testing.\n\nAbout the speaker: Professor 
 Robert Eberlein\, Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW)\, Winterthu
 r\, Switzerland\n\nRobert Eberlein received a PhD degree (Dr.-Ing.) from D
 armstadt University of Technology (Germany) in 1997\, after a student exch
 ange at University of California in Berkeley\, CA\, USA. His research acti
 vities were devoted to finite element modeling\, lightweight design\, and 
 biomechanical engineering. After finishing his PhD\, he joined various pos
 itions in industry for about 15 years\, where he gathered in-depth manager
 ial experience as CTO and member of the group executive committee at Angst
  & Pfister\, Zurich\, Switzerland. In 2013 Robert Eberlein joined ZHAW as 
 senior lecturer and became director of the Institute of Mechanical Systems
  (IMES) in 2017. Over the years he published various scientific papers and
  book chapters in the fields of biomechanics\, finite element modeling of 
 nonlinear materials and lightweight structures. He has been invited to del
 iver lectures in many international conferences and is a frequent referee 
 in scientific journals. Currently he manages about 40 pax scientific staff
  at IMES.\n\nLecture Organizer: Prof. Hamid Akbarzadeh\, hamid.akbarzadeh
