A postdoctoral researcher position is available in the area of sheet metal forming, plasticity theory, computational modeling of forming of advanced high strength steels, light-weight alloys at POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) working under the supervision of Prof. Myoung-Gyu Lee. He/She will also work with Prof. Frederic Barlat who is a world famous scholar in the field of plasticity.
Understanding the electrothermal-mechanical behavior of electronic inter-
connects is of practical importance in improving the structural reliability of
electronic devices. In this work, we use the finite-element method to analyze
the Joule-heating-induced thermomechanical deformation of a metallic sphere
that is sandwiched between two rigid plates. The deformation behavior of the
sphere is elastic–perfectly plastic with Young’s modulus and yield stress
decreasing with temperature. The mechanical stresses created by Joule
Natural rubber (NR) is known to crystallize under strain (SIC) so that NR samples subjected to loading-unloading cycles exhibit hysteresis. A brief review of the numerous experiments conducted on this material is given. Detailed information on the microstructure is therefore available, particularly simultaneous measurements of stress versus elongation and
The 23rd International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (ICTAM2012) will be held in Beijing, China, from 19 to 24 August, 2012. The Congress is hosted by The Chinese Society of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (CSTAM).
The Congress venue is the China National Convention Center (CNCC) which is ideally located in the heart of the Olympic Green of Beijing, adjacent to the National Stadium (Bird’s Nest) and the National Aquatics Center (Water Cube).
A postdoctoral/research associate position is available in the area of computational modeling of granular materials at Rutgers University working under the supervision of Prof. Cuitino. Candidates with a strong background in computational mechanics of solids, interfacial mechanics, granular materials and computational methods are highly encouraged to apply.
Post-Doc Position:
Multiscale Simulations of Domain Structures in Thermoelectric Materials
A post-doc position is available at the VSB - Technical University Ostrava, Czech Republic on multiaxial fatigue. Because VSB-TUO is joint in our FADOFF project on validating multiaxial criteria (www.fadoff.cz) and development of PragTic fatigue solver (www.pragtic.com), I expect a close cooperation with the successful applicant. The deadline for an electronic application is nevertheless very close - next Monday August 20, 2012. See the brief version (http://www.pragtic.com/docu/Postdocs_VSB_brief.pdf) and full version (http://www.pragtic.com/docu/Postdocs_VSB.pdf) of the call - the position on multiaxial fatigue is K4.
I have a postdoc position in the dept. of MAE in UCSD, starting from Feb. 2013.
The research will be on the mechanics of soft materials and biomaterials, the design and fabrication of soft active structures and
mechanics of energy materials.
People with experimental background on experimental mechanics, materials fabrication and bioengineering is perferred.
