Computational mechanics of continua and structures

The research group creates advanced phenomenological and data-driven models to facilitate reliable predictive analysis and performant numerical characterisation in various fields of engineering and application contexts. We focus on innovative computational methods and simulation techniques for the digital twinning of (building) materials, structures and engineered multi-physics systems.
