Discover the World of Concrete Modelling with MMC2! 

Join our RILEM -EAC sponsored- Multi-scale Modelling Course for Concrete (MMC2) and unlock the secrets of cementitious materials at four unique levels of detail.  

Explore various modelling techniques that simulate the chemical, physical, and mechanical behaviour of cementitious materials. Dive into the world of macro, meso, micro, and nano-level modelling. 

  • Macro-Level: Delve into early-age temperature and stresses development, and harness the power of commercial FEM software.  
  • Meso-Level: Explore fracture mechanics and brittleness with a focus on the Lattice model.  
  • Micro-Level: Investigate hydration and microstructure properties using pixel and vector-based approaches.  
  • Nano-Level: Peer into the intricacies of the C-S-H gel using molecular dynamics and ab initio schemes.  

Our intensive course week offers a blend of theoretical lectures and hands-on workshops, ensuring you grasp the full spectrum of possibilities. Elevate your knowledge through elevator pitch talks and dynamic discussions.  

Don't miss this opportunity to bridge the "numerical gaps" between scale levels and join us in the exciting world of multi-scale modelling. Register now for MMC2!

The MMC course is designed for:

  • Graduate students (PhD, MSc students and Postdocs) 

  • Professors and other academic professionals 

  • Professionals from industry
