The Computational Structural Mechanics Working Group provides a forum for everyone with an interest in Computational Structural Mechanics to discuss issues of mutual interest, while at the same time initiating and directing activities of benefit to NAFEMS members as a whole through publications, seminars, and workshops. The Group also acts as NAFEMS’ technology centre in this area and interact with industry and academic experts in order to provide an authoritative response to technical issues within its remit. The Group works closely with other working groups and seeks to complement their activities.
