The two-day meeting will be divided into three themes:
- Experimental aspects in small-scale plasticity
- Computational discrete dislocation plasticity
- Continuum modelling and homogenisation schemes
There will be 8 formal presentations with time left for discussion and participants are
encouraged to give short presentations during discussion times.
