Autorentext
Dr. Hung Nguyen Xuan (H. Nguyen-Xuan) is Director of Center for Interdisciplinary Research (CIRTech), Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (Hutech), Vietnam. He received his Ph.D. in Computational Mechanics from The University of Liège (Belgium) in 2008. He has collaborated with leading research institutions and universities around the world such as National University of Singapore (NUS), Bauhaus-University Weimar (Germany), University of Cincinnati (USA), Cardiff University (UK) and Ghent University (Belgium). He is currently an adjunct professor at The University of Southern Queensland (Australia), a visiting professor at Sejong University (South Korea) and China Medical University (Taiwan). He is President of Vietnam Association of Computational mechanics. His researches focus on Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) for advanced development of robust computational methods with high performance computing. He (co-)published more than 140 peer-reviewed papers. Dr. Nguyen-Xuan received the prestigious award, Georg Forster Research Award, and the others. 
Dr. Phuc received his Ph.D. at the Ghent University, Belgium in February 2016. After that, he continued to receive a BOF postdoctoral fellowship at Ghent University until 2019. His researches are focused on Computational Solid Mechanics. He is particularly interested in developing multiscale isogeometric analysis and their application to computational materials design. His research topics include smart materials, composites, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), shape memory alloys, functionally graded materials, piezoelectric, numerical methods (Finite Element Method, Isogeometric Analysis, Smoothed Finite Element Method, etc).

Dr. Rabczuk received his Ph.D at the University of Karlsruhe in January 2002. He spent more than 3.5 years as postdoctoral fellow at Northwestern University, USA and around 1 year as postdoctoral fellow at the Technical University of Munich before joining the University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand in February 2007. Since February 2009, Dr. Rabczuk is full professor at Bauhaus Universität Weimar, Germany. The research focus of Dr. Rabczuk is Computational Solid Mechanics with emphasis on method development for problems involving fracture and failure of solids and fluid-structure interaction. He is particularly interested in developing multiscale methods and their application to computational materials design. His research topics include Constitutive Modeling, Material Instabilities, Fracture, Strain Localization, Numerical Methods (Extended Finite Element and Mesfhree Methods), Isogeometric Analysis and Computational Fluid-Structure Interaction.

Klappentext
This book provides an overview of state-of-the-art methods in computational engineering for modeling and simulation.  This proceedings volume includes a selection of refereed papers presented at the International Conference on Advances in Computational Mechanics (ACOME) 2017, which took place on Phu Quoc Island, Vietnam on August 2-4, 2017.

 The contributions highlight recent advances in and innovative applications of computational mechanics. Subjects covered include: biological systems; damage, fracture and failure; flow problems; multiscale multiphysics problems; composites and hybrid structures; optimization and inverse problems; lightweight structures; computational mechatronics; computational dynamics; numerical methods; and high-performance computing.
