Minneapolis, October 8-11, 2023
PhD students, Ashkan, Derya, Jun, and Ekim, participated in the 2023 Society of Engineering Science Annual Technical Meeting in Minneapolis.
Ashkan presented on “a subdivision-stabilized isogeometric material point method for strongly coupled diffusion in hydrogels, a new Eulerian-Lagrangian formulation for highly deformable materials with diffusion.
