6.9 Adhesion, Friction, and Fracture at Soft Interfaces: Theory, Simulation, and Experiment

The Society of Engineering Science (SES) 2024 Conference will take place in Hangzhou, China from August 20 through 23, 2024. 

Please consider submitting an abstract to Mini-Symposium 2.1 titled "Multi-Physical Processes in Granular Media: Experiments, Theory, and Modeling". The description and list of organizers follow.

Hard-magnetic soft materials (HMSMs) consisting of an elastomer matrix filled with high remnant magnetic particles can exhibit flexible programmability and rapid shape changing under non-contact activation, showing promising potential applications in soft robotics, biomedical devices and flexible electronics. Precise predictions of large deformations of hard-magnetic soft materials would be a key for relevant applications.

Title: Modeling and Simulation Engineer

Category: Full-time position in industry

Employer: SLB

Location: United States, Texas, Sugar Land

Opening Date: 02/01/2023

Intro

The research is concerned with modeling of electroactive soft materials. Preference will be given to candidates with background in nonlinear finite element methods and constitutive modeling.

If you are interested, please send an email to me at: cvjmah [at] technion.ac.il with a single PDF file containing your CV, grades, names of two references, and a brief description of how your experience and background meet the requirements for this position.

Dear iMechanicians,

Let me bring your attention what I believe is the most comprehensive study in the area of hydrogen embrittlement of additively manufactured materials. You can find all details here:
