Title:  Fiber Orientation Prediction for Discontinuous Fiber Composites: Fundamentals and Future Trends

Speaker:  Professor Charles Tucker, UIUC

Time: 2/2, 11AM-12PM EST.

Dear Colleagues,

Dear Colleagues,

The Mechanics of Infrastructure Materials research group is looking to hire a Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA) to work on hydrogen embrittlement modelling. The postdoc will be based at Imperial College London and supervised by Dr Emilio Martínez-Pañeda. Salary: £43,093 – £50,834.

I am posting this announcement of behalf of Lev Truskinovsky (PMMH, ESPCI /CNRS), for a 3 years funded PhD grant on "Bridging mesoscopic and molecular scales in crystal plasticity" at Lab. PMMH (www.pmmh.espci.fr), CNRS/ESPCI/Paris 6/Paris 7, Paris, France (see also attached flyer). 

Dear colleagues and friends,

On the occasion of the 17th US National Congress on Computational Mechanics (USNCCM 2023, https://17.usnccm.org/) to be held in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA on July 23-27, 2023, we are organizing the mini symposium

Two fully funded PhD positions are available as early as Fall, 2023 in Dr. Ning Zhang’s research group at the Baylor University. The research work will focus on the mechanical, chemical, and thermal properties of structural and multifunctional materials.

The research topics include:

(1)   Polymer composites;

Applications are invited from motivated and qualified candidates for two postdoctoral positions in the mechanics of slender bodies. The positions are ideally suited for applicants with a background in solid mechanics, and a strong interest in theoretical and analytical work.

Application procedure: online

Physics of ultrasonic welding process is considered to be an inverse process of

shear band formation. Details can be seen in the paper.

In this work, we presented biohybrid electronic robots (eBiobot) powered by optogenetic skeletal muscles and controlled by wireless optoelectronics, allowing remote control of switching, steering, and other more sophisticated functions. The eBiobot inherits the structural concept motivated by a physiological muscle-tendon-bone architecture from previously demonstrated walking robots, where 3D engineered skeletal muscle tissue forms around an asymmetric hydrogel scaffold.

The Department of Neurology, Dell Medical School, and the James T. Willerson Center for Cardiovascular Modeling and Simulation, Oden Institute, have a jointly administered opening for a Post-doctoral Fellow in the area of Neurovascular mechanics derived from clinical images.

Project:

Postdoctoral position in Computational modelling of life extension and maintenance of composite blades of wind turbines, at DTU Wind.

Wind turbines are decommissioned after 20...25 years of service. However, blades can be potentially exploited for 50 or more years. How to predict and extend the lifetime of wind turbine blades? How to optimize repair of blades, to ensure their extended lifetime?

Dear Colleagues,

My research group in the School of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Oklahoma is looking for a Ph.D. student to work in the general fields of computational materials science and solid mechanics. Please share the attached flyer with anyone who may be interested.

Thank you

We are looking for a self-motivated Ph.D. student to study Machine Learning enabled computational models for applications in Material Modeling and Computational Mechanics. 

Multiple postdoc and one PhD positions are open at Tsinghua University to investigate mechanics and numerical modeling of granular materials and debris flows through a multiscale approach integrating experiments, simulations, and theory. The research will take place at Tsinghua University’s Shenzhen International Graduate School (SIGS), located in Shenzhen, China, and is partly sponsored by NSFC and Tsinghua SIGS’s scientific research startup funds.

It gives me great pleasure to announce the outcome of the 2022 competition for the Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty. This award is given annually to rapidly emerging junior faculty who exemplify the creative use and development of mechanics. The intent of the award is to promote the field of mechanics, especially among young researchers. The selection committee consisted of: K. Ravi-chandar (UT Austin), Huajian Gao (Brown University), G.
