The project&rsquo;s envisioned outcome is to a better understanding of the relationship between the small scale physics and structures and the overall macroscopic properties of a material. This research has application in the design of new, smart material, or in the development of treatment for injuries and disease of biological tissues.</span> </p> <p> <span>&nbsp;</span><span>The candidate has a genuine interest in nonlinear solid mechanics (including fracture mechanics, constitutive modeling and damage), nonlinear numerical modeling (finite element method), as well as in multiphysics modeling of interactions between mechanical, biological and biochemical processes.</span> </p> <p><span>For consideration,&nbsp;please send&nbsp;an email (including a CV)&nbsp;to: </span><span><a href="mailto:franck.vernerey@colorado.edu"><strong><span>franck.vernerey@colorado.edu</span></strong></a></span><span>. </span></p> <p> &nbsp; </p> <br class="clear" /> http://imechanica.org/node/3139#comments biological materials computational mechanics multiscale mechanics Ph.D. position Tue, 29 Apr 2008 13:58:52 -0400 Franck Vernerey 3139 at http://imechanica.org
