The objective of the nwt 5 has been to train participants on the advanced simulation of ropes and cables. The contents included the absolute nodal coordinate formulation, ALE formulation, geometrically exact beams, and the efficient computer implementation, specifically with regards to open source simulation codes. Additionally, the local frame approach and Lie group methods have […]
Stefan Hante, a PhD student from Martin Luther University Halle, took part as an external participant in nwt 5 and shares his experience of the week in Austria. “The network wide training nwt5 took place in the first week of September 2020. Not only did everybody learn a lot about beam models, Lie groups and […]
The first part of nwt 10, organised by Prof. Dejan Zupan of the University of Ljubljana, took place online this week. With a lot of practical exercises, the ESRs learned methods and instruments to write good scientific texts and to present themselves and their research to different target audiences. The workshop was facilitated by Dr. […]
This week, the first part of the first network-wide training took place. Our ESRs joined the lectures and practical exercises on non-linear beam theory and flexible multibody dynamics online. Here are some impressions from the ESRs: Davide: “The first nwt was an exciting experience, especially because we had the chance to face and solve exercises […]
The first on-site network-wide training will take place from 1 September to 5 September 2020 in Obergurgl, Austria. It is organised by Prof. Johannes Gerstmayr from the University of Innsbruck. The ESRs will hear lectures from Prof. José Escalona, Prof. Olivier Brüls and Prof. Johannes Gerstmayr and learn about the modelling and simulation of ropes […]
Despite the current pandemic, the training activities in THREAD will start soon. Our ESRs will be able to learn about non-linear beam theory, taught by the team of Professor Sigrid Leyendecker, and flexible multibody dynamics, taught by Professor José Escalona, in an online seminar taking place between 29 June and 3 July 2020. The remaining […]
01/04/2020 Rijeka, Croatia / Kaiserlautern, Germany On 1 April, two new doctoral students joined THREAD: Jan Tomec in the group of Professor Gordan Jelenić at the University of Rijeka and Davide Manfredo at Fraunhofer ITWM under the supervision of Dr. Joachim Linn. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s not possible for Davide to travel to Kaiserslautern right now […]
12/03/2020, Rijeka, Croatia A local meeting of THREAD partners was planned for today at the University of Rijeka, Croatia. Because of current travel restrictions due to COVID-19 / Corona virus, Dr. Tomaž Šuštar (Principal investigator at C3M d.o.o., Ljubljana, Slovenia) and his PhD student Toni Jelušić could not attend the meeting personally but only online […]
