Over the next two years Loughborough University, UK plans to appoint up to 100 new academics across a wide range of disciplines. There will be opportunities for individuals and world-leading research groups to join us at our Loughborough or London campuses.
For details, please consider
The Computational Design & Manufacturing Laboratory (CDM) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison is inviting applications for a post-doctoral researcher position in the general area of computational design.
Candidates with strong background in finite element analysis, structural optimization, and/or high-performance computing are encouraged to apply.
To motivate students to attend the conference, ASC 2017 offers up to 20 travel scholarships including free registration and travel expenses up to $500. The top six will also receive additional cash prizes. Details can be found at https://cdmhub.org/groups/asc2017/scholarship. Professors, please encourage your students to apply. The abstract due date is Feb. 17. More details about the conference can be found at https://cdmhub.org/groups/asc2017.
This post is a part of my notes on linear algebra.
A Sankey diagram is a visual display of the flow of a scalar. In a Sankey diagram, the width of each branch of the flow is proportional to the magnitude of the scalar.
Consider a thin dielectric plate with conducting faces: when will it break if a voltage is applied? If it is rigid it will break once its dielectric strength is overcome by the voltage. But what if it is highly stretchable, like the elastomers used for soft actuators, stretchable electronics, or energy harvesters? The precise answer to that question is not known.
A new class of time-integrators is presented for strongly nonlinear dynamical systems. These algorithms are far superior to the currently common time integrators in computational efficiency and accuracy. These three algorithms are based on a local variational iteration method applied over a finite interval of time.
The School of Materials Engineering at Purdue University invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate position in the area of Computational Mesoscale Plasticity. The successful candidate will model plasticity of single crystals using continuum dislocation dynamics and perform computational solution using finite element method. We are particularly interested in applicants with expertise in computational materials science and/or computational mechanics, good background in elasticity and plasticity theory, and knowledge of dislocation dynamics.
We are delighted to invite you to attend the American Society for Composites Annual Technical Conference which will be held on the campus of Purdue University, Oct. 23-25, 2017. The conference website is: https://cdmhub.org/groups/asc2017.
The conference welcomes all papers related with various aspects of composites science and technology. There are total of 25 tracks organized. The important dates are:
