In today's (May 2) issue of Nature, we report a recent achievement in applying mechanics principles of stretchable electronics and optics to create biologically inspired artificial compound eye cameras. It was also highlighted in the Nature News & Views, "Optical devices: Seeing the world through an insect's eyes".
Dear Colleagues, Co-Workers and Friends,
It gives me great pleasure to announce that the 23rd International Workshop on Computational Mechanics of Materials (IWCMM23) will take place in Singapore, Oct 2-5, 2013.
Ju Liu, from the University of Texas at Austin, is the 2013 Melosh Medalist for his paper "A Thermodynamically Consistent Algorithm for Liquid-Vapor Phase Transitions in Complex Geometries". Please join me in congratulating Ju!
Dear Colleagues,
NUMISHEET 2014 (http://www.numisheet2014.org) will be held at “Hilton on the Park” in Melbourne,
Australia January 6-10, 2014. On behalf of this conference, we would like to invite you to submit an
abstract to the following mini-symposium:
New and established standard test methods for sheet metals, and their
"off-label use" in research
We are seeking to hire outstanding candidates for a post-doctoral research position in
the Koslowski’s group at Purdue University to work on dislocation dynamics and/or
continuum modeling of plasticity. The project involves developing and applying
numerical methods to study creep and plastic deformation in nano and ultrafine
crystalline materials. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to interact with a
wide range of experimentalists and theoreticians in academia, industry and national labs.
