About CSMMC

 

The main goal of the CSMMC Laboratory is to develop computational tools in order to be able to bridge between the scales in computational mechanics of concrete structures in an efficient manner. To achieve that we are focusing our efforts on the development of theoretical multi-scale formulation on one end and the technology transfer on the other end in order to create an efficient and reliable computational environment for the multi-scale multi-physics analysis of concrete structures.

The Laboratory resources include the facilities (laboratory space) in the department of structural engineering which is housed in Kiryat Tuviyahu-Bait Hayas campus at BGU. The hardware laboratory computational facilities include EMT64 Intel processor-based clusters, high-performance computers and workstations environment. The Software laboratory computational facilities include access to the ABAQUS/SIMULA, MATLAB, FORTRAN, C++, AUTOCAD computer programs (mostly used) and has the option to access additional software such us PATRAN, NASTRAN, ANSYS, LSDYNA and MATEMATICA.

The Laboratory performs also researches which requires verities aspects related to the finite element methods such us in Geo-mechanics, Heat transfer in concrete structures and green building aspects.
