Dr Filippo Masi, post-doc in the GeM Institute, receives the Early Career Researcher (best oral presentation) award at EMMC18

Dr Filippo Masi, post-doctoral researcher in the GeM Institute, received the Early Career Researcher - best oral presentation - award at EMMC18 (18th European Mechanics of Materials Conference) for his presentation on “Multiscale modeling of inelastic microstructured materials with Thermodynamics based Artificial Neural Networks (TANN)”.

EMMC18 was held from 4th to 6th April 2022 in Oxford (UK). This conference, under the auspices of the European Mechanics Society, Euromech, brings together researchers who share a common interest in the field of mechanics of materials across different fields of application.

The work presented by Filippo is part of ERC-CoQuake (Principal Investigator: Prof. Ioannis Stefanou, GeM) and enables large-scale simulations of heterogenous materials such as faults, architectured and bio-materials, which were impossible until now due to a prohibitively high computational cost.
