Mini-symposium at ASME IMECE 2023 on scientific machine learning and uncertainty quantification
Jessica Zhang, Alireza Tabarraei, Kathryn Maupin, and myself are organizing a mini-symposium on “Data-Enabled Predictive Modeling, Machine Learning, and Uncertainty Quantification in Computational Mechanics,” in the ASME IMECE 2023 (October 29 – November 2, 2023). The symposium solicits abstracts on novel scientific machine learning (SciML) and uncertainty quantification (UQ) methods a wide range of applications across science, engineering, and medicine.

Reconfigurable enhancement of actuation forces by engineered losses in non-Hermitian metamaterials
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
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
Ph.D. Positions in Design Optimization and Fracture Modeling at Drexel University
There are two open Ph.D. positions in the MCMB Lab starting in the Spring term of the academic year 2022-2023, or in the Fall term of the academic year 2023-2024. One of these positions is in design optimization, and another position is in the fracture analysis of engineering/biological composites. Qualified candidates must have:
Postdoctoral Positions in the Damage-Healing Modeling of Autonomous Self-healing Concrete Structures
The Multiscale Computational Mechanics and Biomechanics Lab (MCMB Lab) at Drexel University is seeking for two immediate postdoctoral positions to conduct research on modeling fracture and healing phenomena in autonomous self-healing concrete structures. Looking for motivated postdoctoral candidates with great communication skills interested in computational damage/healing analysis to develop computational frameworks.
