Orientation-dependent plasticity mechanisms control synergistic property improvement in dynamically deformed metals

Submitted by Ramathasan The… on

Dear Colleagues,

I invite you to read our recent paper on the orientation dependent plasticity mechanisms that control the dynamic creation of nanostructures and their  behavior under subsequent quasistatic microcompression published in the International Journal of Plasticityhttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijplas.2023.103657

Synergistic strength and toughness through impact-induced nanostructural evolutions in metals

Submitted by Ramathasan The… on

Dear Colleagues,

I invite you to read our recent paper on the process-structure-property relations in heterogeneous nanostructured metals created through a laser induced projectile impact of single crystal microcubes published in the Extreme Mechanics Lettershttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.eml.2023.102037

Prof. Zdenek Bazant Plenary Lecture at ICDM 4 in Baton Rouge

Submitted by Cemal Basaran on

Prof. Zdenek Bazant (Northwestern University, USA) sent me a copy of the plenary lecture he delivered at Int. Conf. on Damage Mechanics 4 at LSU on May 15, 2023, to be posted. The lecture is about a critique of the theoretical inconsistencies in the Phase Field and Peridynamics techniques. Remarkably interesting talk that will create a significant discussion about the validity of these methods..

1st Workshop on Thermodynamics of Fatigue Process

Submitted by pragtic on

The workshop takes place on-line only on June 14 from 2 PM CET. It is intended to serve as a networking event, where interested researchers present their focused domain. The subsequent brainstorming will help us to evaluate whether there is a will for a broader cooperation among the participants, and if to transform this workshop into something more regular.

If you do not feel strong enough to present, you are still invited to join us - simply let me know to my e-mail address to get the access to the workshop. No fee requested.

Postdoctoral Fellow in Data-Intensive Modeling of Architected Polymer Blends at Johns Hopkins University

Submitted by vicky.nguyen on

The Nguyen Lab and Elbert Lab invite applications for a postdoctoral position in data-intensive modeling and analysis of architected polymer blends, starting as soon as possible. The position is part of a funded NSF-DMREF grant to create Materials Architected by Adaptive Processing in accord with Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) goals.

Postdoc openings on Computational Mechanics and Scientific Machine Learning

Submitted by nbouklas on

There are multiple openings for postdoc positions on the intersection of Computational Mechanics and Scientific Machine Learning in the Bouklas Lab (https://blogs.cornell.edu/bouklaslab/) in Cornell MAE.

The work will focus on automated constitutive modeling, solution of PDEs and software development.
