Prof. Xuanhe Zhao from MIT will receive the 2015 Journal of Applied Mechanics Award for his paper "Phase diagrams of instabilities in compressed film-substrate systems " (Journal of Applied Mechanics, v 81, article 051003, 2013).
Dear Colleagues,
We are inviting you to submit abstracts on ASME McMAT 2015: Symposium 10:
Fundamental Biomechanics and Biomaterials Invention for Translational Medicine.
As part of my EPSRC Fellowship programme, I am now recruiting the second post-doctoral fellow associated with the project. I am looking for a talented young researcher with skills in experimental mechanics, particularly in the field of high rate testing of materials and high speed imaging for full-field deformation measurements. Informal enquiries can be made directly to me at f.pierron [at] soton.ac.uk, attaching a CV.
Dear Colleagues,
Please consider to attend the symposium entitled "Mechanics of Materials in Energy Technologies" at the occasion of ASME 2015 Applied Mechanics and Materials Conference, 6.29-7.1, 2015, in Seattle.The conference occurs every four years and covers all aspects of mechanics and materials: theoretical, experimental, and computational.
The description of the symposium is below.
We invite you to submit abstracts to this Simpleware-sponsored minisymposium
Deadline: February 15, 2015
13th US National Congress on Computational Mechanics (USCNCCM13)
July 26-July 30, Manchester Grand Hyatt, San Diego, CA
Mini-symposium - Biomechanics Modeling: Advances and Applications to Real-World Problems
Organiser: Petr Krysl, University of California, San Diego
The ASME 2015 Applied Mechanics and Materials Conference (McMat2015) will be held in Seattle, Washington, USA, June 29-July 1, 2015. We are organizing a symposium at this conference - Symposium 17: Mechanics of Materials in Extreme Environments.
A short course on the “Mechanics of Liquid and Solid Foams” will be offered at CISM, the International Centre for Mechanical Sciences in Udine, Italy, 13-17 July 2015 (see brochure attached).
The course will focus on relationships between the cellular microstructure and nonlinear mechanical behavior of liquid and solid foams, and foam-like biological and synthetic materials. Theoretical models, experimental methods, and numerical simulations will be presented. The course is aimed at PhD students, postdocs, and researchers in academia and industry.
Abstract: There has been relatively little study on time-dependent mechanical properties of nanowires, in spite of their importance for the design, fabrication and operation of nanoscale devices.
