<p>Candidates will be working as part of the Rapid Biomechanics Simulation for Personalized Clinical Design (RAINBOW) MSCA European Training Network, awarded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program. The network consists of 5 universities, 1 hospital, 8 industrial partners, located in Denmark, Spain, Luxembourg, England, France and Germany. The purpose of the network is to educate 15 ESRs through common dedicated training activities and research stays. The RAINBOW research objective is to realize the full potential of computational medicine and ICT to arrive at patient-specific simulation models that are rapidly set, are easy-to-use by clinical experts and do not require assistance from technicians. Candidates will be exposed to clinical practice and get close to patients and clinical experts while working both with theory and creating software, design tools, to be used by clinical experts</p>

<p>Starting date is 1 September 2018 or as soon as possible thereafter. Appointment is for a period of 36 months, includes enrollment in a Doctorate program and is expected to lead to a PhD dissertation. The scholarships requires a Master's degree in Computer Science or a field providing equivalent qualifications, at the time of taking up the position.</p>
<p><span><em>Further details on each position, requirements and submission of application via the hosting institution’s specific job add. Individual job adds available at </em></span><a href="http://rainbow.ku.dk/open-positions/"><span><em>http://rainbow.ku.dk/open-positions/</em></span></a></p>
<p><span>Benefits:</span> The ESRs will be employed by the host institution and have the benefits provided for in the MSCA-ITN early career fellowship regulations, including a competitive remuneration (exact salary will be calculated per country and will contemplate living and mobility allowances and possibly family allowances). They will receive scientific skills in biomechanics simulation and computational medicine and specialized courses and transferable skills. S/he will be supervised by a main supervisor and a co-supervisor. Also, all the students will participate in short term stays in collaborative organisations and industries within the network (secondments).</p>
<p><span>Mobility rule and eligibility criteria:</span> Since the scholarship is part of the MSCA European Training Network programme candidates must - at the date of recruitment – be an “Early Stage Researcher” (i.e. in the first 4 years of his/her research career and not have a doctoral degree) and cannot have resided in the country of their host organisation for more than 12 months in the three years immediately before the recruitment.</p>

<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>Hello,</p>
<p></p>
<p>I am looking for some data/pictures of crack propagation tests. More precisely, what I am looking for are test results of some 2D structure (or structures that can be modeled in 2D) where the experimenter has listed the geometry, material, loads and boundary conditions, and displayed photos of the crack that was observed propagating on loading the structure. Sort of like "heres a plate of dimensions a x b, made of material x, with an initial crack here, I now apply a load of magnitude M, and heres a picture of the crack that has propagated."</p>
<p>If load vs crack propagation distance is also available that would be fantastic.</p>
<p></p>
<p>The reason I am looking for this is I am modeling crack propagation and need to compare the results with real world examples to verify the models. The focus of the study is on the path of crack propagation so that is what I need examples of. Im modeling brittle materials, tho I'd be able to consider ones with some plasticity. However a material like cement would be too different from my models so I don't think I could use those results.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I was wondering if any of you know of papers, books or other documents with such examples. Its not hard to find a picture of a crack, but Im not sure where I can find detailed experimental information showing initial geometry, material name, applied load vector and a picture of the resulting crack path. Maybe Im using the wrong keywords, but when I search for this in the databases or in google I get a lot of useless results with the word crack in them. </p>
<p></p>
<p>If you know of even a single paper or book with one or more example of actual crack testing information and/or photos please let me know and I'll try to get my hands on it. Heck, if you've done some testing in your own lab and have reported the loading and the resultant crack path Id be thrilled to take a look at that.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thank you</p>
<p>Gary</p>
