DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/cam/85/">Num
 erical simulation of beam network models</a>\nby Lucia Swoboda (Chalmers &
  GU) as part of CAM seminar\n\nLecture held in MV:L14.\n\nAbstract\nNetwor
 k models are used to describe complex structures in fiber-based materials\
 , like paper\, and biological tissues\, such as blood vessels. In these mo
 dels\, fibers are represented as beams connected at nodes\, capturing mech
 anical properties while reducing computational costs compared to full 3D s
 imulations. This talk addresses two problems: (1) the elastic deformation 
 of beam networks in a stationary setting\, and (2) the elastic wave propag
 ation in time-dependent simulations. Both problems\, derived from linear e
 lasticity\, describe how materials respond to applied forces and moments. 
 I will present the key steps in the convergence analysis and error estimat
 es\, supported by numerical results. Finally\, I will introduce a two-leve
 l overlapping domain decomposition method for efficient parallelization.\n
