Rodney Hill was born on 11 June 1921. He was a Reader, then Professor, in The Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP), of The University of Cambridge, during the period 1969-1979. He is widely regarded as among the foremost contributors to the foundations of solid mechanics over the second half of the 20th century. He was author of 'The Mathematical Theory of Plasticity' published in 1950.

Every year I try to get funding for things that I'm personally interested in but which may not have any immediate economic benefits. A couple of years ago, after reading Penrose's "Road to Reality", I thought about applying Clifford algebra ideas to fracture mechanics and wrote up a proposal to that effect. The proposal wasn't funded, but I think the idea is worth exploring.
The summary of the proposal was
Naturally negative bulk modulus material.
Negative Linear Compressibility and Massive Anisotropic Thermal Expansion in Methanol Monohydrate

The Dynamical Systems Laboratory in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the Polytechnic Institute of New York University is seeking to recruit multiple Post-Doctoral fellows and Ph.D. students in fluid-structure interactions, mechanics of composite materials, and vibrations.
Dear Colleagues,
We would like to invite you to participate in the symposium on "Advances in modeling and applications of cellular solids" at the ASME Applied Mechanics and Materials Conference, McMAT-2011. The conference will be held in Chicago, IL from May 31 to June 2, 2011.

Hi all
What is the difference between plastic deformation and Elasto-plastic deformation? Thank you all.
