Modelling, testing and simulation of the effect of roughness on mechanical response of adhesive joints

1 Post Doctoral Fellow position at the IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca (Lucca, Italy), in cooperation with Robert Bosch GmbH (Renningen, Germany)

(Deadline January 2nd, 2019 12:00 Italian time)

Fields: Adhesives; Roughness; Nonlinear finite element method; Experimental testing; Confocal profilometry

Dear all,

Our group at Delft University of Technology has recently published a study on Deformation and Fracture of 3D printed disordered lattice materials. In the study, we used experiments and numerical simulations to study these effects. The full paper can be accessed at: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/329146684_Deformation_and_frac…;

Regards,

Branko
