The 9th International Conference on Composites: Characterization, Fabrication, and Application (CCFA-9) was held on December 18-19, 2024, at the Iran University of Science and Technology and the University of Tehran.
CCFA
Keynote Speech: Dr. Mohammad M. Aghdam
Speaker Biography
Dr. Mohammad M. Aghdam is a Professor of Computational Solid Mechanics at Amirkabir University of Technology (AUT). He has published over 250 peer-reviewed articles, authored 14 book chapters, and is recognized among the top 1% of highly cited researchers globally. His expertise spans multiscale modeling, homogenization techniques, and advanced computational methods in material science.
Presentation Topic: Homogenization Methods
Dr. Aghdam’s presentation focuses on Homogenization Methods, a cornerstone of multiscale material modeling. The talk will provide:
- A review of classical and modern homogenization techniques, including Voigt-Reuss models, Hashin-Shtrikman bounds, and asymptotic homogenization.
- Recent developments in nonlinear homogenization for complex material behavior such as plastic deformation and damage.
- The integration of machine learning to accelerate computations and predict material properties.
This comprehensive overview highlights the evolution of homogenization methods and explores future directions in AI-driven multiphysics modeling.
