Article: An Atomistic-based Finite Deformation Continuum Membrane Model for Monolayer Transition Metal Dichalcogenides

Submitted by susanta on

Highlights

• A finite-deformation crystal-elastic membrane model for TMD monolayers is presented.

• Strains of the middle surface and two normal-stretches describe the deformation.

• The continuum hyperelastic strain energy is obtained from an interatomic potential.

• The present model matches well with the purely atomistic simulations.

Temperature-dependent multiscale modeling of graphene sheet under finite deformation

Submitted by M. Jahanshahi on

The homogenized constitutive models that have been utilized to simulate the behavior of nanostructures are typically based on the Cauchy–Born hypothesis, which seeks the fundamental properties of material via relating atomistic information to an assumed homogeneous deformation field. It is well known that temperature has a profound effect on the validity and size-dependency of the Cauchy-Born hypothesis in finite deformations.

Faculty position in the department of Mechanical Engineering-Engineering Mechanics at the Michigan Tech

Submitted by susanta on

Hi,

Our department of Mechanical Engineering-Engineering Mechanics (MEEM) at Michigan Tech is currently searching for outstanding new colleagues in space technology, aerospace technology, NVH, acoustics/noise control, composites, and electric vehicles. Still, we are also open to other fields. We are currently looking to fill tenure-track positions at all levels.  Finding and encouraging talented senior graduate students, postdocs, and colleagues to apply for opportunities is challenging. 

 

Postdoctoral positions at McMaster University

Submitted by Blaise Bourdin on
I am looking for several year postdoctoral fellows to join my research group on variational phase-field models of fracture at McMaster University. 
  • One position deals with the coupling of diffusion equations and phase-field fracture, with the target application being corrosion stress cracks. This position is to be filled not later than the end of 2022.
  • Another position deals with advanced numerical schemes for phase-field fracture.

Exciting new vacancy - MatchID US subsidiary

Submitted by Fabrice Pierron on

Given our substantial growth over the past few years, MatchID deems the time right to expand our horizon and evolve from a spin-off towards a truly international scaled-up company. To that purpose we will establish a US subsidiary that will not only give us a local physical presence, but also help convey more directly our philosophy to potential customers for a widespread range of applications and market verticals.
