Lukas’ visit at ICTAM 2024 in Daegu, South Korea

From August 26th to 30th, Lukas Laubert attended the International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (ICTAM) 2024 held in Daegu, South Korea. This international event offered him a chance to connect with researchers from around the world, which was indeed a valuable opportunity for Lukas. His week centered around sessions on “Nonlinear Mechanical Models for Biological and Bioinspired Materials”, where he took on the moderator role and presented his research on “Multi-level Parameter Identification of a Finite-strain Viscoelastic-viscoplastic Material Model for Bio-sourced Epoxy” on the first day of the conference. In addition to his contributions, Lukas participated in lectures and presentations on various topics, such as composites and damage mechanics, each providing valuable insights for his own research. The conference also featured numerous networking events, including a welcome reception and congress banquet, allowing him to exchange ideas with fellow researchers from around the globe.
