Abstract

We are looking for a postdoctoral research fellow who has experience and interest in developing and implementing computational methods and algorithms for simulation and optimization in structural and continuum mechanics.

A fully-funded MS position is available from Spring 19 in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. The prospective student should be highly motivated to take part in computational and/or experimental research related to multiscale/multiphysics modeling and/or biomechanics. The student will be involved in any of the following areas depending on his/her interest and background: 1) Cellular Materials and Hierarchical Structures and 2) Osteoporosis and Hip Fracture Risk.

I hope some of you may find this work interesting:

Job Description

Dear iMechanicians,

I would like to invite you to the prepared 8th volume of the Workshop on Computational Fatigue Analysis series. The 2018 volume is dedicated to the FKM-Guideline on Strength Assessment, which covers both static and fatigue analysis of common industrial components. The key lecturer this time is Dr Roland Rennert from IMA Dresden, one of the co-authors of its last 6th revised version released in 2012.
