Dear colleagues,
We would like to invite you to submit abstracts for our mini-symposium (MS13) on Mechanics of Bioinspired Materials and Structures in the upcoming EMI conference (June 4-7, 2017) at San Diego. The scope of the mini-symposium is listed below:
Kindly view the PDF announcement for more details. The research will be conducted under the supervision of Professor Maurizio Porfiri, director of the DSL. The Dynamical Systems Laboratory (DSL) is seeking to recruit outstanding Ph.D. students in a number of funded research projects.
We are looking for PhD candidates (Research Assistships) to conduct research in the area of Mechanics of Soft Matter and Living Cells. Motivated individuals interested in either experiments or computational analysis are encouraged to apply by sending emails to Prof. Sulin Zhang at (suz10 [at] psu.edu (suz10[at]psu[dot]edu)).
Short course at Centre International de Sciences Mechanique (CISM), Udine.
May 22-26, 2017
Lecturers: S Forest, I Groma, D McDowell, S Mesarovic, J-N Roux, H Zbib

Summary
Since the beginning of the industrial age, material performance and design have been in the midst of innovation of many disruptive technologies. Today’s electronics, space, medical, transportation, and other industries are enriched by development, design and deployment of composite, heterogeneous and multifunctional materials. As a result, materials innovation is now considerably outpaced by other aspects from component design to product cycle. In this article, we review predictive nonlinear theories for multiscale modeling of heterogeneous materials.
Post-doctoral research fellow positions are available immediately in the Labs of Professor Satya N. Atluri at Texas Tech University. Those possessing PhDs in the area of Data Fusion, Kalman Filtering, and Particle Filter Theories are sought. Qualified candidates from around the globe are encouraged to contact Professor Atluri directly at: snatluri.ttu [at] gmail.com (snatluri[dot]ttu[at]gmail[dot]com) .
A PhD or postdoc position is available in computational multiscale modelling of geological materials at my research group.Interested candidates please visit http://gradengineering.columbia.edu/onlineapplication for general information.

Dear Colleagues:
We cordially invite you to submit your abstract to our mini-symposium (MS# 701) for the 14th U.S. National Congress on Computational Mechanics (USNCCM14) to be held in Montreal, Canada on July 17-20, 2017.
Our mini-symposium is entitled “Advanced Computational Methods and Theories for Predicting Material Behaviors at Various Length Scales”, and a description can be found at: http://14.usnccm.org/MS701
Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in hydro-fracturing (fracking) is
available immediately at Masdar Institute of Science and Technology in Abu
Dhabi in United Arab Emirates. Masdar Institute is established in collaboration
with Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The research project focuses on
using advanced computational fracture and damage mechanics for simulating
hydro-fracturing of rocks in hydrocarbon fields. The candidate is expected to
have a PhD in the field of geomechanics, or civil engineering with solid
