Simuli-responsive hydrogels that swell under constraints such as spatial geometric confinement are commonly employed in many applications to perform mechanical work. In this contribution, we present a simple 3D-printing based method to quantify the mechanical interactions between the gels and their environment. Our findings underscore the potential of gels in the design of actuators, sensors, biomedical devices, etc…

The Computations for Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Laboratory (CAMML) in the College of Engineering and Physical Science at the University of Wyoming has an opening for a Postdoctoral Researcher with a targeted starting date of 07/01/2023, in the area of computational modeling of hydrogen embrittlement of pipeline steel. The initial contract will be for one year, with renewal opportunity contingent on funding availability and performance. 

I would like to bring to your attention an intensive three-day course on "Invitation to nondestructive evaluation and structural health monitoring" that will be given by Dr. Zahra Sharif Khodaei (Imperial College London) from Monday, 22 May, to Wednesday, 24 May 2023, at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague.

It is with great pleasure that I announce that from mid-May
Prof. Luca Caracoglia (Northeastern University, Boston MA, USA)
will be UniGe Visiting Professor.

During the visiting period, starting from 17 May, Prof. Caracoglia will hold a PhD course entitled
