Lecturer
The Cardiff School of Engineering seeks applications
for a full time Lecturer post in Composite Materials. The successful
candidate should have an established record of research and/or
industrial experience in one or more of the following areas, composite
manufacturing, composite design and analysis, mechanical testing of
composites.
Reader (Associate Professor) / Professor
Increasing complexity of numerical simulations has made it important to obtain reliable experimental data for a variety of mechanical properties. Fracture properties are complex to measure but accurate data is often desirable for several challenging problems. We have developed a novel short-beam shear fracture approach in order to measure the mode-II fracture toughness properties of materials with 'preferred' interfaces.
Dear iMechanica Readers,
Greetings from Oak Ridge.
I would like to invite you, your colleagues and students to attend the annual Educational Symposium organized by the Oak Ridge Chapter of ASM International. The theme for this year’s symposium is:
“Innovations in Mechanical Testing: From Molecules to Large Engineering Structures”
We have an outstanding list of speakers, which includes:
Ian Robertson (NSF) - "In situ TEM testing" (Keynote Speaker)
Dear colleagues,
For people interesting in the simulation of solids mechanics with impact contact and friction, we are pleased to announce a new release of the Siconos software. The software is open-source, under GPL Licence and can be found at http://siconos.gforge.inria.fr/
