ICONDE

Sabine Upnere participated at international conference " Optimization and Analysis of Structures "

Dissemination of ICONDE project results concerning "Application of bridging law concept to basalt fiber concrete with OSA - numerical study of mechanical test results"

The international conference " Optimization and Analysis of Structures " took place for the fifth time in Tartu, Estonia, from August 28 to 29. The conference aims to gather experts in the fields of Solid Mechanics, Fracture Mechanics, Material Science, Applied Mathematics, and the Theory of Optimization.
Researcher Sabine Upnere participated in the conference with the presentation "Application of bridging law concept to basalt fiber concrete with OSA - numerical study of mechanical test results". During her presentation, Sabine introduced the conference participants to the ICONDE project and the obtained results in crack modeling. An interesting discussion took place about the importance of short fibers in crack prevention with Professor Konstantin Lurie from Worcester Polytechnic Institute, USA.
