Symposium on Coupled Problems in Material Mechanics at EMMC17, May 27-29, 2020, Madrid.

Submitted by Laurence Brassart on

Dear colleagues,

We would like to draw your attention to the following symposium at the 17th European Mechanics of Materials Conference (EMMC17) to be held in Madrid, May 27-29, 2020:

S9: Coupled Problems in Material Mechanics 

which aims to gather scientists working across a variety of material systems to share recent advances in the modelling and simulation of multiphysics and coupled-field problems in solid mechanics. Experimental approaches in direct relation with model identification and validation are also welcome.

Postdoc opening at Purdue

Submitted by hgomez on

We have an opening for a postdoctoral researcher to perform original research on computational fluid dynamics, with particular emphasis on biofluids. The successful candidate will develop numerical methods to model coupled processes on high-performance computing platforms. This position is in the Gomez Research Group (https://engineering.purdue.edu/gomez/) in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Purdue. This is a one-year postdoctoral appointment with the possibility of extension to a maximum of three years.

PhD openings in solid/structural mechanics at Stony Brook University

Submitted by Paolo Celli on

I would like to advertise several openings for Ph.D. students in my recently-established research group, the Dynamic Structures Laboratory at Stony Brook University. The intended starting semester is Fall 2020.

A good applicant has a background in engineering, physics or math, and is passionate about mechanics and its application to structural systems at various lengthscales. An ideal applicant has also coding experience, likes "DIY" and/or arts&crafts, and is open to writing in LaTeX.
