Seeking a Post-Doctoral Associate in Finite-Element-based Physics-Informed ML

The microMechanics of Deformation Research Group (mMOD) in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Rutgers University is seeking a Post-Doctoral Associate to perform research under an internal award from the Rutgers TechAdvance program. The goal of the project is to extend a recently developed technique for constructing finite-element-based physics-informed neural network (FE-PINN) surrogate models to nonlinear problems in mechanics of materials (and beyond).

Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) or Associate Professor in Digitalization for Structural Engineering

Do you want to understand how digitalization can revolutionize civil engineering structures? Do you want to bridge the gap between academia and industry in your daily work? Are you eager to share your research with our students so that they can make the difference tomorrow? Then you could be the new colleague we are looking for. The Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering of Aarhus University is looking for a visionary Assistant Professor (Tenure Track)/Associate Professor in the area of Digitalization for Structural Engineering.

Postdoc openings in metal 3D printing at Tsinghua University

We have 2 postdoc openings in the field of laser fusion additive manufacturing of metals at Tsinghua University. The candidates are required to have expertise in synchrotron x-ray techs, metal additive manufacturing, electron microscopy (TEM/SEM), grain growth, phase transformation, or micromechanics. This is a two-year appointment with the possibility of renewal. See more information here (in Chinese).

Morphomechanics of growing curled petals and leaves

Petals and leaves are usually curled and exhibit intriguing morphology evolution upon growth, which contributes to their important biological functions. To understand the underlying morphoelastic mechanism and to determine the crucial factors that govern the growth-induced instability patterning in curved petals and leaves, we develop an active thin shell model that can describe variable curvatures and spontaneous growth, within the framework of general differential geometry based on curvilinear coordinates and hyperelastic deformation theory.

Preliminary observations on coupled dislocation and fracture mechanics at finite strain

This paper is dedicated to Professor Nasr Ghoniem on the occasion of his retirement.

(To appear in Journal of Materials Science: Materials Theory)

Abstract

A continuum mechanical model of coupled dislocation based plasticity and fracture at finite deformation is proposed. Motivating questions and target applications of the model are sketched.

Monsieur Pineau, as I remember him

I am deeply saddened by the passing of Andre Pineau in Paris yesterday. I happened to be one of ~100 PhD students he graduated over the course of his career.
