3D phenomenological constitutive modeling of shape memory alloys based on microplane theory
This paper is studied constitutive modeling of SMAs, that have some new features. Also some multiaxial loadings on SMAs are investigated experimentally.
NSF-PACAM Travel Scholarship to Attend PACAM 2013 at Houston
PACAM 2013 (Houston) has some limited funds which will
be used to provide partial support to participants from the USA. The financial support is provided by the
National Science Foundation and the University of Houston. The primary targets
of the travel scholarships are graduate students, post-docs and early career
researchers e.g. assistant professors. The deadline for receipt of the completed
scholarship application is 21st
February, 2013.
Postdoc Position in Chile (nonlinear elasticity, continuum mechanics)
The Superior Councils for Science and Technological Development of Chile will
call on April for the FONDECYT Postdoctoral Grants Competition.
The available grants are for 2 or 3 years. The applicants must have obtained
their Doctorate degrees approximately between July of 2010 and the end of
September of 2013 (the exact dates will appear in the page of the agency later
on).
