Dear colleagues,

We are organizing a symposium titled "Fundamentals of Fracture" at the 2013 Spring Meeting of the German Physical Society, taking place in Regensburg, Germany.

The aim of this international symposium is to bring together specialists from the fields of solid state physics, materials science, continuum mechanics, statistical physics and mathematics to discuss  the latest scientific developments related to fundamental mechanisms and physics of fracture.

The Cluster of Excellence ‘Engineering of Advanced Materials’ of the Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg is inviting applications for doctoral students and postdocs in the area of Computational Materials Science to join the institute for general materials properties, the computer chemistry center and/or the chair of theoretical chemistry.
