Please consider submitting an abstract to the Symposium Architected Materials: Design, Fabrication and Characterization for the 2019 Mach Conference which will take place on April 3-5 in Annapolis, MD.
The deadline for abstract submission is November 1.
Organizers: Stavros Gaitanaros (JHU), Jamie Guest (JHU), Jordan Raney (UPenn)
Please consider submitting an abstract to the Mini-Symposium 63 Extreme mechanics of architected materials for the EMI 2018 Engineering Mechanics Institute Conference which will take place May 29 - June 1 at MIT. The deadline for abstract submission is January 31.
Applications are invited for a PhD position at Johns Hopkins University (beginning Fall 2018) on a collaborative project between the labs of Extreme Mechanics of Architected Materials (Prof. Stavros Gaitanaros) and Mechanochemistry And Functional Imaging Applications (Prof. Yun Chen) at Johns Hopkins University.
The project will focus on the combination of multi-scale modeling and experiments in order to examine the mechanical behavior of DNA origami nanostructures.
A short course on the “Mechanics of Liquid and Solid Foams” will be offered at CISM, the International Centre for Mechanical Sciences in Udine, Italy, 3-7 July 2017 (see brochure attached).
The course will focus on relationships between the cellular microstructure and nonlinear mechanical behavior of liquid and solid foams, and foam-like biological and synthetic materials. Theoretical models, experimental methods, and numerical simulations will be presented. The course is aimed at PhD students, postdocs, and researchers in academia and industry.
The speakers are:
Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Fellow research position at Johns Hopkins University, focused on the computational modeling and nonlinear mechanics of architected materials.
Applicants must hold a PhD in Mechanical/Civil Engineering or a related discipline, and should have demonstrated background in computational solid mechanics. Previous experience with cellular/porous materials is preferred. Excellent written and verbal communication skills and organizational talents are expected.
