Dear all,

Please find enclosed our paper which is published on Journal of Multiscale Modelling
Vol. 3, No. 4 (2011) 1–42 which gives an overview of state of the art multiscale techniques for material modeling. 

The paper discusses the following topics: homogenization, Representative volume element, computational homogenization (Fe2 methods) for both both bulk materials and strong discontinuities. 

I hope the paper is useful for beginners to the field.

All the bests, 

Enrique Romero (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech, Spain) and Jean-Michel Pereira (Ecole des Ponts ParisTech, France) are organizing a mini-symposium on "Coupled
processes in geomechanics. Bridging theory and experiments"
(MS16) at the 5th Biot Conference on Poromechanics to be held in
Vienna, Austria, July 10-12, 2013.

We are looking for candidates for
the Junior Postdoctoral Fellowship Juan de la Cierva. Details of the fellowship
appear at Ministerio de Economia y
Competitividad (MINECO) website.

Dear colleagues,

please consider applying for the faculty position in my Department described in the attached announcement. As you can see one of the focus areas of interest is in Aerospace Materials and Structures for which applicants with expertise in Solid Mechanics would be a great fit.

Sincerely,

Raul Radovitzky

It is my pleasure to announce the launch of the "Eshelby-UH Mechanics Award for Young Faculty". This award will be given annually to rapidly emerging junior faculty who exemplify the creative use and development of mechanics. The intent of the award is to promote the field of mechanics, especially among young researchers. While interdisciplinary work that bridges mechanics with physics, chemistry, biology and other disciplines is encouraged, the ideal awardee will demonstrate clear inspiration from mechanics in his/her research.
