We are interested in the following broad topics: 1) Numerical methodologies to solve complex problems in oil and gas industries - from tools, wellbores to reservoirs; 2) Applications of AI/ML in oil/gas industry 3) Constitutive modeling for metals, polymers, geomechanical materials and their applications; 4) Fluid-structure interactions and other multi-physics simulation; 5) Reliability, uncertainty quantifications and application of statistical FEA/CFD in real world problems; 5) Verification and validation of analysis of complex engineering designs; 6) Engineering simulation, AI/ML driven designs and innovations, and design optimizations; 7) Please contact the mini symposium organizers if you have suggestions for other topics. Experts and practicing engineers in all disciplines in oil and gas industries are invited to submit their abstracts to this symposium.
