Atoms, Defects and Microstructure: Atomistic and Mesoscale Simulation of Mechanical Properties
Meeting of the working group Microstructural Mechanics of the DGM
Journal of Applied Mechanics (ASME Transactions) now publishes very fast.
Journal of Applied Mechanics (JAM) received 526 submitted manuscripts in 2013. Among them 4 are still in review.
The average time for the 1st round of review, with the decision to accept, or reject, or revise, is 18 days. After the 1st round of review, the average time to make the final decision is 34 days, which include both the authors' revision time and 2nd (and more) round(s) of review.
After acceptane the uneditted manuscript appears online with the assigned DOI within 48 hours.
Postdoctoral researcher position opening at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), Korea
We are seeking a highly qualified candidate for a full-time postdoctoral researcher position in the area of Computational Mechanics at the Graduate Institute of Ferrous Technology (GIFT), Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), Korea. Candidates with a strong background in continuum/dislocation-based plasticity theory, computational mechanics of sheet metals, FE modelling of sheet metal forming processes… are highly encouraged to apply.
Responsibilities:
An elastic phase field model for thermal oxidation of metals: Application to zirconia
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0927025614002031
Abstacrt: A multi-phase field model was developed for non-selective oxidation of metals which captures both the oxidation kinetics and stress generation. Phase field formulation involved a non-conserved phase field variable as the marker for the metallic substrate, oxide scale, and a fluid phase containing oxygen, and a conserved phase field variable representing the concentration of oxygen.

presenting a new method to model of metal foams
i have presented a new method for the first time to model of metal foams that subtracts stochastic cells from a desired volume and changes it to a foam.
i would like to know if there is any phd position for this?
thank u for your consideration :)
