Introduction
The Extreme Mechanics Letters (EML) Young Investigator Award (YIA) 2024 edition is organized by the journal and Elsevier to honor the best paper by a young scientist. The papers must have been published in volumes 63-69, from 2023 to 2024.
The award is made annually to the corresponding authors of the paper who received their Ph.D. no more than 10 years prior to the year of award. Corresponding authors who have yet to receive a Ph.D. will also be considered and self-nominations are allowed.
Mechanical properties of materials are usually measured by simple one-dimensional tests. The growing field of data-driven mechanics requires development of experimental methods to obtain large quantities of multi-axial data from a single test. To complement this data is the requirement to develop computational methods that can deal with the inevitable measurement noise.
The contact between a rigid Hertzian indenter and an adhesive broad-band viscoelastic substrate is considered. The material behavior is described by a modified power law model, which is characterized by only four parameters, the glassy and rubbery elastic moduli, a characteristic exponent n and a timescale tau0.
The Kang Group for Bioinspired Extreme Materials is looking for outstanding candidates to join the group. We have openings as below. Due to the large volume of applications received, we will contact only those selected for interviews. Thank you for your understanding.
