Esteemed Colleague,
following the success of the first series of webinars, as the Editor-in-Chief of Theoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics (TAFMech, https://www.journals.elsevier.com/theoretical-and-applied-fracture-mechanics/), this e-mail is to invite you to attend the following free on-line global live webinars on Fracture Mechanics-related topics:
Þ Prof. Tim Topper – University of Waterloo, Canada
A postdoctoral position is open at Université Gustave Eiffel, France. The project will focus on Centrifuge Modelling of soft soil reinforced by rigid inclusions subjected to seismic loading. The post-doctoral researcher will carry out experimental studies on the soil-rigid inclusion-superstructure interaction taking into account several highlighted factors. The experimental study will also provide essential data for numerical modeling.
Start date: October, 2021
Application deadline: Open until Filled
I would like to direct your attention to our 1st Virtual FRASCAL Colloquium which is organized by the DFG funded Research Training Group GRK 2423 "FRASCAL - Fracture across Scales".
Recent advances in microprojectile impact tests have opened a new route to explore the behaviors of nanomaterials under extreme dynamic conditions. For example, impact tests have revealed that the specific penetration energies of ultrathin polymer films are remarkably high compared to the energies of conventional protective materials. The current experimental techniques are, however, unable to elucidate some of the complex atomistic mechanisms associated with the penetration process, which can only be realized through atomistic simulations.
Our new review article [open acess] on damage, void evolution, and fatigue life prediction models. We tried to include everything done in the last 20 years. My apologies if we missed your work.

The Computational Mechanics and Methods Group (CM3) in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Kentucky is seeking highly self-motivated individuals who have great interests in the broad research area of computational mechanics and methods. Ideal applicants should have strong background in solid mechanics and great interests in computational modeling & simulation using nonlocal meshfree/meshless methods, such as peridynamics. Related research experience in impact modeling and simulation is a plus.
We are looking for an applicant with Master degree in Mechanical Engineering or allied fields with prior experience in finite element modelling and mechanical/damping characterization. The position is for a period of up to 36 months, depending on the performance of the candidate. There might be possibility of registering for the MS (by research) or PhD program at the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, if found suitable in the corresponding selection procedure of these programs.
The program for the joint 5th International Conference on BioTribology (ICoBT) and the 23rd International Conference on Wear of Materials (WOM) is announced. The conference will take place online 26-28 April 2021. Delegates have full access to both conferences.
Registration deadline for live participation: 23 April 2021
