General information

The mathematical foundation of fracture mechanics has seen considerable advances in the last years. This field of study covers a big variety of exciting topics, including propagation of cracks, equilibrium of structures with thin inclusions in the presence of delaminations, frictional contact problems, inverse and control problems. The aim of the workshop "Mathematical analysis of fracture phenomena for elastic structures and its applications" is to bring together researchers working on different aspects of these issues. The workshop provides a platform for researchers to communicate, discuss, and exchange ideas under the common theme of fracture phenomena.

CoMFoS was initiated in 1995 under the auspices of the activity group "Continuum Mechanics Focusing on Singularities (CoMFoS)" of the Japan Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (JSIAM). From April 2010, the activity group CoMFoS was renamed "Mathematical Aspects of Continuum Mechanics (MACM)". This is the 20th сonference of CoMFoS and will be held under the co-sponsorship of the Japan-Russia Research Cooperative Program.

The Workshop and CoMFoS topics:

elasticity, plasticity
• modeling of composite materials
fracture mechanics
• study of mathematical models for solids with defects
asymptotic and multiscale analysis
optimal shape design
inverse problems
