Hi everyone,



I am working on a project which deals with the bi-

layer system of slabs(i.e., two layers of different concretes bonded

together with a cement grout). The only loading case is the

temperature, i.e, due to the high room temperature different

concretes will conduct different temperatures and due to which the

stresses are developed and hence due to warping the edge curling and

delaminations occur.



My questions are;

Recent developments in computational cell and biomolecular mechanics have provided valuable insights into the mechanical properties of cells, subcellular components and biomolecules, while simultaneously complementing new experimental techniques used for deciphering the structure–function paradigm in living cells. These computational approaches have direct implications in understanding the state of human health and the progress of disease and can therefore aid immensely in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.

The Singapore International Graduate Award (SINGA) is a collaboration between the Agency for Science, Technology & REsearch (A*STAR), the National Unviersity of Singaproe (NUS) and the Nanyang Technological University (NTU). PhD training will be carried out in English at your chosen lab at A*STAR Research Institutes, NUS or NTU. Students will be supervised by distinguished and world-renowned researchers in these labs. Upon successful completion, students will be conferred a PhD degree by either NUS or NTU.



Applications

The Institute of Mechanical Engineering of the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto, Portugal, intents to contract 2 researchers (postdoctoral) to work in the group of Structural Integrity. The main topics of this group are:

- Development of advanced composites

- Product development

- Fracture and fatigue behaviour of components

- Development of structural wood components

- New numerical techniques to analyze solids and structures

- Biomechanical behaviour of soft tissues
