   EBMEC 2002 is the first international biannual conference on Ballistics and Computational Mechanics, providing an overview of new developments, applications, and trends in Internal and External Ballistics, Shock and Impact Problems, Fluid-Structure Interaction, New Developments in Computational Techniques and Software, Explosion.

 

   EBMEC 2002 is open for faculty members, researchers, specialists and graduate students around the world. The meeting will be held at the Brazilian Navy Research Institute, in Rio de Janeiro. Authors and researchers are invited to submit manuscripts on all aspects and fields of the Ballistics Science. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

 

·  Interior Ballistics

·  Exterior Ballistics

·  Terminal Ballistics

·  Experimental Mechanics/Ballistics and Field Testing

·  Shock and Impact Problems

·  Structural Crashworthiness

·  Structures Under Explosive Shock and Impact

·  Material Response to High Rate Loads

·  Fluid-Structure Interaction

·  Fracture Mechanics Under Impact

·  Hyper Velocity

·  New Developments in Computational Techniques and Software Applied to Ballistic Phenomena

 

 

   Simultaneously to EBMEC 2002, Instituto de Pesquisas da Marinha with hold the  WMB 2002 - Workshop on Ballistic Materials - 2002 Edition (http://www.ipqm.mar.mil.br/materiais/wmb2002).
