14th World Congress in Computational Mechanics and ECCOMAS Congress (WCCM-ECCOMAS)
The 14th World Congress in Computational Mechanics and ECCOMAS Congress (WCCM-ECCOMAS) took place from 11 to 15 January 2021. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, a digital conference was held instead of the event planned in Paris in July 2020. The Capriccio group was attending the congress with talks by all members. Moreover, Sebastian Pfaller and colleagues organised a mini-symposium on “Multiscale Mechanics of Polymers and Polymer Composites”. In addition to the recorded talks, the online platform also offered the possibility to participate in live events and discussions. Questions could even be answered in a discussion forum provided for each of the talks. The Capriccio group could establish new contacts and address important issues in extended and fruitful discussions. To review the event and create some conference atmosphere, the Capriccio group met for a virtual conference dinner after the official end of the congress. The Capriccio group would like to thank the organisers for a successful online conference.
