Dear colleagues,
We would like to draw your attention to the International Workshop on Plasticity, Damage and Fracture of Engineering Materials, which will take place in Ankara, Turkey on 22-23 August 2019. The deadlines for abstract and full paper submissions are April 19 and June 17 2019,respectively.
Post-doctoral research fellow positions are available in the Labs of Professor Satya N. Atluri at Texas Tech University. Those possessing PhDs in the area of nonlinear dynamics, computational mechanics, and structural dynamics are sought.
(Yang et al Adv. Funct. Mater. 2019, 1901721). In our new paper, strong adhesion is achieved in integrated structures of a hydrogel and an elastomer extrusion-printed in arbitrary sequence.
Many materials of everyday use are fibrous and their strength is important in most applications. In this work we study the dependence of the strength of random fiber networks on structural parameters such as the network density, cross-link density, fiber tortuosity, and the strength of the inter-fiber cross-links. Athermal networks of cellular and fibrous type are considered. We conclude that the network strength scales linearly with the cross-link number density and with the cross-link strength for a broad range of network parameters, and for both types of networks considered.
The College of Engineering and Science at Louisiana Tech University is seeking self-motivated candidates for a Graduate Research Assistant (Ph.D. student) position, with the earliest starting date in Fall 2019.
IMPACT is an international Multiscale Materials Testing Research Group at Tampere University. Our work focuses on microscopic and macroscopic mechanical testing of materials at different strain rates and temperatures. We focus on improving the basic scientific understanding of material behaviour under extreme conditions and solving practical industrial problems involving high rate material deformation. IMPACT is looking to hire a Doctoral Researcher (PhD student) in the field of Materials Science to work on micromechanics of materials studied under extreme deformation conditions.
