Reconfigurable enhancement of actuation forces by engineered losses in non-Hermitian metamaterials

Submitted by Ramathasan The… on

Dear Colleagues, 

I invite you to read our recent Extreme Mechanics Letters paper presenting a novel viewpoint on enhancing emissivity near exceptional point singularities in a non-Hermitian metamaterial. We present the experiments and numerical modeling in an elastodynamic framework--where the actuation forces from an actuator are enhanced by coupling to a passive dissipative non-Hermitian metamaterial--and present the theory further generalized and applicable to other physical frameworks from acoustics to optics and microwaves.

Multiple Ph.D. positions open

Submitted by Osama R. Bilal on

The lab of Wave Engineering for eXtreme and Intelligent matTEr (We-Xite) has multiple openings for Ph.D. positions. We are looking for exceptional and highly motivated candidates with background in Engineering, Physics, Materials or Mathematics. The research will have a balance between experimental characterizations (non-destructive evaluation of samples fabricated using additive and subtractive methods), numerical simulations (finite element modeling) and analytical derivations (nonlinear dynamics of spring-mass systems). Interested applicant should send a brief (one paragraph) description of their research interests and their resumes (including educational background, test scores and experience). Please send your emails to we.xite.group [at] gmail.com

Postdoc in mechanics of woven and fiber-based materials at the University of Pittsburgh

Submitted by iasigal on

We are looking for a highly motivated postdoc to join our team to study the mechanics of woven or fiber-based materials. Applicants should have expertise in mechanics of materials with long fibers. These can be artificial, like textiles and fabrics, or natural, like soft tissues including tendon or heat valves.  Experience in multi-scale methods is advantageous.  Experimental or computational are both welcome.
