NANO-SCALE CALORIMETRY
POST-DOCTORAL RESEARCH POSITION IN EXPERIMENTAL MATERIALS SCIENCE
School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University
The Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences seeks highly qualified applicants for a post-doctoral research position in experimental materials science. The successful candidate will participate in a project to design an apparatus for high-temperature calorimetry on nanoscale quantities of materials. This apparatus will be used to study phase transformations in complex ternary and quaternary materials systems.

Here is a report on Citation Statistics written by the International Mathematical Union written in cooperation with the ICIAM and IMS.
Given all the discussion on impact factors and h-indicies, I thought many people may find this report interesting.
True strain rate experiment

I am planning to perform few "true-strain-rate" experiment under compression (where the crosshead velocity is not constant sice the height of the specimen keeps decreasing/ area of cross section keeps increasing, hence requiring the velocity to decrese to attian true stress-true strain), is there any option available in Bluehill or Max software of Instron 8874to suit my requirement? As an alternative method, are there any options for me to import my own X-Y data (either time vs position or time vs velocity) to the system so that i can perform this true strain rate testing.

Post-doc Newton Fellowship
Dear all,
Below is an opportunity to apply for post-doctoral positions in the UK for two years if you are not currently working in the UK. I am currently looking for candidates with expertise in computational mechanics to complement the work being performed by 4 to 5 Ph.D. students in areas related to: (1) fracture mechanics (2) surgical simulation (3) multiphysics and multiscale modelling of fracture in materials with complex architectures. Please contact me if you are interested stephane dot bordas at gmail dot com

Domain structures of ferroelectric nanotubes controlled by surface charge compensation
Ferroelectric nanotubes have potential application in inkjet printing and drug delivery due to their piezoelectric property and unique geometry. For different applications, different electrical boundary conditions are applied to ferroelectric nanotubes. In the present work, domain structures in ferroelectric nanotubes (FNTs) under different electrical boundary conditions are predicted through a phase field model. Simulation results show that domain structures are highly dependent on the compensation of polarization-induced surface charges.
