Scope of Symposium
It is widely accepted that fatigue is the most common failure mode of structural components. Losses due
to fatigue failures annually are over several millions to billions of dollars. Apart from these economic
losses, fatigue failures are also responsible for causing major safety concerns due to the rapid and often
undetectable nature of the final components’ fracture. This symposium will bring together researchers
The well-known J integral is only valid for straight crack, am I right?
If no, can anyone please point me a reference for the J integral in case of curved crack?
thanks.
A Three days international conference on Engineering Coatings is going to be held in Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay during Feb 9-11,2012
Applied Mechanics Division Honors & Awards Banquet, 15 November 2011, Hyatt Regency, Centennial Ballroom A&B, Third Level.
3 Post-Doc positions are available at the Department of Innovation Engineering at the University of Salento in Lecce, Italy. Funding is provided by the ERC Starting Researcher Grant project "INTERFACES - Mechanical Modeling of Interfaces in Advanced Materials and Structures". The topics are related to computational methods for interface modeling, isogeometric analysis, and mutlscale methods.
A research scientist position is available at TU Bergakademie Freiberg in the area of computational modeling of dislocation properties using either molecular dynamics, discrete dislocations or crystal plasticity. The research of the group focuses on dislocation properties at both the nanoscale and the microscale. The successful candidate should have a strong background in numerical modeling with demonstrated capability of innovative and independent research.
