Warming up for THREAD’s Final conference

POSTED: 25 July 2023

In about two months, the THREAD network will meet for its final conference HFSS 2023 in Rijeka.

Time to warm-up at the 11th ECCOMAS Thematic Conference on Multibody Dynamics in Lisbon. Five Early Stage Researchers of the THREAD network report on their work being supported by another two ESRs as co-authors of their work:

  • Davide Manfredo; Mohammad Ali Saadat; Vanessa Dörlich; Damien Durville; Joachim Linn; Martin Arnold: Modelling the inelastic constitutive behaviour of multi-layer spiral strands: comparison of hysteresis operator approach to rheological model
  • Konstantina Ntarladima; Johannes Gerstmayr: A multibody approach for the simulation of ropeway systems
  • Indrajeet Patil; Alejandro Cosimo; Armin Bosten; Olivier Brüls: A beam-to-rigid body frictional contact formulation: application to yarn-mandrel interactions

  • Denise Tumiotto; Ergys Çokaj; Elena Celledoni; Brynjulf Owren; Martin Arnold: Nonlinear stability of Lie group integrators

At this ECCOMAS Thematic Conference, three of the four plenary lectures are given by THREAD PIs:

  • José L. Escalona: Railway multibody dynamics: modeling advances and industrial applications
  • Johannes Gerstmayr: Computational methods and implementation for flexible multibody systems
  • Sigrid Leyendecker: Geometric modelling, integration and optimal control of flexible multibody dynamics

Furthermore, three PIs present contributed papers based on their recent work:
