Dear All,
I would like to bring to your attention seven new research opportunities at the University of Oxford and at the Fraunhofer Institute in Freiburg (DE).
These are for four Post-Doctoral Research Assistantships (one at Oxford, three at Freiburg) and three PhD
Studentships (all at Oxford).
The details can be found here: http://www.eng.ox.ac.uk/NP/RESEARCH/VACANCIES/vacancies.html
Many thanks,
VITO

Due to the existence of surface stress, the interior of a free standing nanowire is in non-zero stress state especially near free surface (see attached). This stress state corresponds to strain field in nanowires. A reference configuration would then be necessary to define the strain. Any good suggestions on the selection of the reference configuration?
Hello everyone?
Leonhard Euler has 5 students and 56,850 academic descendents. They are all listed by the Mathematics Genealogy Project. Euler himself was a student of Johann Bernoulli, and produced a student named Joseph Louis Lagrange, who in turn produced Fourier and Poisson. No wonder Euler has so many descendents by now.
I am Cecilia. In 2007 I graduated in mechanical engineering at the University of Cagliari (Sardinia, Italy).
During the degree courses I took several classes on structural mechanics, including, Mechanics of Composite Materials,
Fracture Mechanics, Finite Element Analysis (with Ansys and Abaqus).
Now I am a PHD student at the Univesity of Cagliari and this is the aim of my research:
Finite element modelling of polymer-clays nanocomposites with
I am currently working on a poroelastic model for an oil basin-I have tried and read through Abaqus manual to find out how we can apply Biot's Coefficient in our model or how it takes care of it-Does anyone have any clue about this?

The 62nd Annual Meeting of the American Physical Society's Division of Fluid Dynamics (DFD) will be held in Minneapolis, Minnesota from November 22nd to 24th, 2009. The meeting is hosted by the University of Minnesota, and will be held at the Minneapolis Convention Center in downtown Minneapolis.
Hi dear members
I am a student doing my Masters in Automotive Engineering at RWTH Aachen and am interested in Structural mechanics. I have done a basic course on mechanics of composite materials and am decently conversant with mechanics of composite laminae. However I am asked to do this mini project where in I am asked to search for a Material model on LS Dyna which is suitable for simulating the crash loading on a 3D braided carbon FRP.
