Georges CailletaudGeorges Cailletaud is a Professor at Mines ParisTech, a position he has held since 1994. He served as Director of the CNRS research unit at Centre des Matériaux (2006-2011) and deputy Director of the Department of Mechanics and Materials at Mines ParsTech (2008-2011). His main contributions deal with material modeling at various scales, specifically plastic and viscoplastic formulations for isothermal and non-isothermal loading, with crystal plasticity applied to single crystal and polycrystalline agregates, with damage development and crack initiation models. His work includes the developments of the model themselves and of the numerical methods needed for the numerical implementation in finite element codes. He is the author of two books.
