3rd MATFEM Conference

A forum for advanced material modelling

The 3rd MATFEM Conference took place on 21 October 2014 at Schloss Hohenkammer, a conference centre some 30 km off Munich airport. The conference was a forum for discussing material modelling as well as a get-together of MF GenYld + CrachFEM users.
