The Department of Aerospace Engineering at Iowa State University invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty positions at the assistant, associate, or full professor ranks to begin August 2009. Applicants are sought in all areas of aerospace engineering and engineering mechanics but preference will be given to those with interest and expertise in aerospace structures/mechanics of materials, multidisciplinary design and analysis, experimental thermal-fluids, propulsion, wind energy, and wind engineering.

PNAS 105, 18675 (2008) 

Dae-Hyeong Kim et al from Prof. Rogers’ group (University of Illinois), Prof. Jizhou Song (University of Miami), Prof. Yonggang Huang (Northwestern University), and their collaborators at IHPC in Singapore and Tsinghua University just published a paper as the featured cover article in PNAS.   

Highly competitive candidates are sought for locally-funded fellowships in biomechanics at Cambridge University.  The Next Generation Fellowships are being advertised through the new Centre for Trophoblast Research, an interdisciplinary research centre focused on the trophoblast, the critical cell in the development and function of the placenta. 

World Scientific is proud to announce the launch of a new online submission system, Editorial Manager (EM), for International Journal of Applied Mechanics (IJAM). One of the industry standard systems used by major academic publishers, EM provides a full online solution for manuscript submission, peer-review, and tracking.

Dear Colleagues,

The deadline for submitting an abstract to the international
conference "Fluid and Elasticity 2009" is approaching.

   ABSTRACT SUBMISSION DEADLINE: DEC. 19

To submit your abstract, please follow the instructions on:
https://www.irphe.univ-mrs.fr/%7Efe09/abstracts.html

The following topics will be addressed:
- Aeroelasticity
- Biological internal flows
- Compliant walls
- Elasticity-capillarity coupling
- Flow-induced vibration

Multiple, assistant researcher/research scientist/postdoctoral positions are available in a large, 4-year duration, Department of Defense program on “Release, Atmospheric Dispersal, and Environmental Fate of Liquid Agents”.  The effort is aiming to: (a) achieve a basic understanding of the physics of aero-breakup and dispersal of liquid agents in high-speed flows, (b) achieve a basic understanding of impact/spreading/absorption/reaction/evaporation of drops falling on various substrates, and (c) develop and validate computational tools covering the hierarchy of scales involved and purp
