A heartfelt thank you to all our speakers:
- Prof. Lori Graham-Brady from Johns Hopkins University, who enlightened us on the synergy between machine learning and materials design.
- Prof. Glaucio Paulino from Princeton University, who amazed us with the engineering marvels of origami.
- Prof. Veronique Lazarus from CNRS, ENSTA Paris, for her deep dive into asymptotic approaches for crack geometries.
- Prof. Alison Davenport from the University of Birmingham, who shed light on the complexities of corrosion.
- Prof. François Hild from LMPS, University of Paris-Saclay, for his expertise on image correlation techniques for damage analysis.
Your contributions made the symposium a resounding success.
Five MaP doctoral students participated in the pitch session. A big thank you to You Wang, Zhichao Han, Medhat Elmorsy, Jonas Heinzmann and Miguel Castellano! And congratulations to Jonas Heinzmann, whose pitch won the audience vote (and a box of chocolates).
Thank you to all the participants for making this event memorable. See you next year!
