The Multi-scale Computational Mechanics Laboratory (MCML) at Vanderbilt University is directed by Dr. Caglar Oskay. Graduate students working with Dr. Oskay in the MCML concentrate their efforts to bringing understanding to nonlinear mechanical and functional response of multi-scale materials and structures through computational modeling and simulation. The MCML research focus is on computational characterization of the failure response of systems that involve multiple temporal and spatial scales, development of computational methodologies for failure and fragmentation of composite systems subjected to extreme loading conditions including impact, blast and crushing loads, characterization of complex and hybrid composite systems, and analysis of multi-physics problems.

Caglar Oskay has been an Assistant Professor of Civil Engineering at Vanderbilt University since 2006. He received his Ph.D. degree from the Civil Engineering Department at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in 2003. He worked as a Research Associate at the Scientific Computation Research Center and Civil Engineering Department at RPI before joining Vanderbilt University School of Engineering www.cee.vanderbilt.edu
