1Our open access journal Advanced Modeling and Simulation in Engineering Sciences (AMSES) is affiliated with the Computational Structural Mechanics Association (CSMA) and covers the vast domain of the advanced modeling and simulation of materials, processes and structures governed by the laws of mechanics. In this interview the president of CSMA, Francisco Chinesta, tells us more about his association, how AMSES supports their goals, his view on open access in the field of computational and structural mechanics and more…
