Our group works in the area of computational modelling of the mechanical behaviour of materials. In my view the most important open question in this area is: "How would we incorporate evolution of microstructure to describe the mechanical response of a material?"
We develop and use computational techniques based onÂ
Discrete particle models
Phase field models
to study diverse problems in the mechanical behaviour of materials.
