Dr. Jun Xu and I organize one topic on “Dynamic failure of advanced materials (fatigue failure is included also)” for 2017 ASME Congress. Our keynote speakers include a senior program manager of US Office of Naval Research and a distinguished researcher of US Army Research Laboratory. We would invite you (also your colleagues and group members) to submit a short abstract before ASME’s deadline March 6. More details below:
Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the ASME Mechanics for Biology and Medicine Technical Committee and Constitutive Equations Technical Committee, I cordially invite you to submit an abstract to the following track:

Introduction and Live Demo
3D Image Visualization, Analysis and Model Generation with Simpleware
Date: Wednesday, March 16, 2016
Time / Venue: 10:30am - 12:00pm: Boston Marriott Cambridge, 50 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02142

Who should attend
Improtance of modeling fatigue damage propagation is substantial given the ubiquity of fatigue-induced component failures across industries. A review of fatigue crack growth models along with a detailed discussion of recent experimental findings (substantiating the model assumptions) are presented (please see the pdf attachment below)
Various outcomes of slip-coherent twin boundary depending on the stress state and slip geometry (during the growth of a microstructurally short crack)
The Department of Mechanical Engineering invites applications for temporary research positions in the Specialist, Project Scientist, and Researcher titles. This is a pooled recruitment, and appointments are subject to availability of funding and departmental needs, and may be part-time or full-time. Screening of applicants will occur as needed, for full consideration apply by March 2, 2016.
Additive manufacturing or commonly known as 3D printing is a manufacturing technique that builds 3D objects by adding materials layer-by-layer.
