Bonjour,

Dans le cadre du 14^e symposium international CMDS-14 (Continuum Models and Discrete Systems), organisé au CNAM (Paris) du 26 au 30 juin avec le soutien de Mécamat, une session poster à destination des jeunes chercheurs est prévue et il reste quelques places de disponible pour présenter un poster.

Il est aussi possible de s’inscrire pour assister aux présentations et participer aux discussions, mais la liste des présentations orales est complète.

Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to inform you about the 14^th International Symposium on Continuum Models and Discrete Systems - CMDS-14.

The symposium will be held in Île d’Oléron, France, from June 25^th to 30^th 2023, following the last two symposia in Salt Lake City (USA) in 2014 and Kolkata (India) in 2011.

The purpose of CMDS symposia is to bring together scientists with different backgrounds, working on continuum theories and discrete mechanical and thermodynamical systems in the fields of mathematics, theoretical and applied mechanics, physics, materials science and engineering. The spirit of CMDS meetings is to stimulate an extensive and active interdisciplinary research. The broad interdisciplinary character, the limited number of participants and the informal and friendly atmosphere, made these meetings well-acknowledged places of highly fruitful contacts and exchange of ideas, methods and results.

Topics of CMDS include:

• Models for complex heterogeneous systems and metamaterials
• Structures of composites with extreme or unusual properties
• Discrete and continuum modeling of deformable solids with microstructures
• Fundamentals of fracture, defect dynamics, fatigue, fracture dynamics, and dynamics of failure of complex structures
• Design of structured and architectured materials: Optimization of micro- and nanostructures
• Dynamics of metastable structures with multiple equilibria
• Thermodynamics, transport theory, electrical properties, and statistical mechanics in the context of continuum modeling discrete systems
• Multiphysics coupling in materials and structures
• Developments in continuum theory; non classical models, and discrete vs. continuum models
• Granular materials: statics and dynamics
• Continuum theory of living structures
