Workshop on Computational Fatigue Analysis 2023 – FKM-Guideline Non-Linear
From October 30 to November 1, 2023, we hold 11th Workshop on Computational Fatigue Analysis in Prague, Czechia. This time, we chose the attractive topic of the latest extension of the FKM-Guideline for Analytical Strength Assessment. This guideline developed for years by FKM Association in Germany provides clear description how to deal with static and fatigue analysis of industrial components.
Postdoctoral position at CEMEF (Mines Paris) in collaboration with Safran Aircraft Engines
One Postdoctoral position is available immediately at CEMEF Mines Paris, in the French Riviera.
The aim of the project, in collaboration with Safran Aircraft Engines (SAE), is to use numerical simulation and experimental testing in the optimization of fan leading edge manufacturing process.

pyLife workshop - updated dates
Dear iMechanicians,
A week ago, I published a blog post here on the pyLife workshop, which had to start tomorrow. The next day, I was informed by one of the lecturers that he cannot come. I checked with all on-site participants whether we can postpone the workshop, and I organized a Doodle poll to find the optimum dates that fit to the most of registered participants. We have a result today - the workshop is shifted by two months exactly. Below you can find the original invitation with the final dates:
Several Funded PhD Positions in Mechanics and Fracture
PhD position at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain
We are seeking a highly motivated and enthusiastic candidate with background in continuum/experimental mechanics eager to be part of an exciting new research project: High strain rate behavior of thermoplastic composite materials for cryogenic hydrogen storage (H-FROST).
Summary:
APS 2024 session on inelastic deformations
