Solid
Mechanics
Emphasizes topics in mechanics and materials science. Current research
activity is in mechanics of materials with microstructure, experimental
mechanics, plasticity, wave propagation and dynamic fracture, biomechanics,
micromechanics, ceramics, crashworthiness, composites, and computational
mechanics.
