Training course on in situ experiments and digital volume correlation
19 - 20 October 2026
Digital Volume Correlation (DVC) is a powerful experimental technique that computes 3D full-field displacement and strain maps from volumes images acquired during a deformation process of a material. DVC is the 3D extension of Digital Image Correlation (DIC) which was first described four decades ago. The emergence of DVC started early 2000s with...

Heilbronn Algebra Seminar - Paolo Marimon
14:00 - 20 October 2026
Title: All mixed identities are singular in groups with no algebraicity. Abstract: We show that if a group admits an action with no algebraicity, then all of its mixed identities are singular. This generalises a theorem of Abért showing such groups are lawless. Our result confirms a conjecture of Bodirsky, Schneider, and Thom for a large class...
