Proceedings of 29th Nordic Seminar on Computational Mechanics – NSCM29

This e-volume contains the extended abstracts presented at the 29th Nordic Seminar on Computational Mechanics (NSCM29), held at Chalmers, Göteborg, Sweden, on October 26-28, 2016. The NSCM is organized annually by the Nordic Association for Computational Mechanics (NoACM), which represents the interest for the Nordic and Baltic countries in the European Community on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences (ECCOMAS) and the International Association for Computational Mechanics (IACM). The first NSCM event was held at Chalmers University in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1988. The overall aim of these events is to be a meeting place for researchers developing computational methods and scientists and engineers focusing on challenging applications in broad aspects of mechanics. In particular, presentations by graduate students are welcomed. Thus, making a friendly and creative atmosphere for the participants is considered important. The conference has attracted approximately 100 contributions formulated in 4-5 parallel sessions over four days. The organizers would like to thank all authors for submitting their contributions, as well as their supporting organizations, to make NSCM29 at Chalmers possible
