Examples of areas of interest (not in any particular order):

In this paper we highlight several interesting phenomena that may emerge from coupling simple elastic systems like 1d bars. While in compostes we usually focus on wave propagation normal to the stratification direction (composite layers are coupled in series), here we show that extreme attenuation at multiple frequencies may emerge in linear systems that are coupled transversaly. We also introduce a simple device that act as a chopper for mechanical signals.

Dear Colleagues,

We cordially invite you to submit an abstract to 1702 Computational Geophysics; a minisymposium that will take place as part of the upcoming 13^th World Congress on Computational Mechanics (New York July 22- July 27, 2018) : http://www.wccm2018.org/MS_1702  

Abstract Deadline: Dec 31st, 2017

There are PhD and MS openings at the University of California Merced in the Mechanical Engineering Department. UC Merced is the newest campus of the well-known University of California system. Because the campus is still relatively small, most incoming graduate students are funded via Teaching Assistantship or Graduate Research Assistantship. Also, the application fee will be refunded for students who are admitted and join the program in the Fall. The application deadline is January 2018.

Ann and H.J. Smead Aerospace Engineering Sciences Department in the College of Engineering and Applied Science at the University of Colorado Boulder invites applications for two tenure-track/tenured faculty position in all areas of aerospace engineering sciences.

We are looking for a doctoral student to work on numerical modelling of fragmentation of quasi-brittle materials. In more detail, you will study breakage and fragmentation of ice blocks. These phenomena occur under compressive loads in ice block to ice block contacts. The fragmentation process is complicated, and requires novel numerical modelling techniques. Modelling may need to be done on different scales, which may have to reach from very high resolution modeling to simplified contact models on larger scale.

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to kindly introduce you the 2018 ICMSC 2018 - The 2nd International Conference on Mechanical, System and Control Engineering,which will take place at Moscow, Russia on  June 21-23, 2018.
