Post-doctoral position at the University of Texas at Austin
The
Center for Mechanics of Solids, Structures and Materials has immediate openings
for two post-doctoral positions, dealing with (i) laboratory experiments on hydraulic
fracture and (ii) ductile failure in metals. The primary focus in both
investigations is on performing laboratory experiments that are then followed
by appropriate analyses. Candidates with a strong background in solid mechanics
and experience in experimental solid mechanics are encouraged to contact Professor
PACAM XIII - Modeling and Characterization of Ductile Failure
Dear Colleagues,
The Thirteenth
Pan-American Congress of Applied Mechanics (PACAM XIII) will be held in
Houston, TX, USA. The conference dates are May 22-24th, 2013.
Post-doctoral position at the University of Texas
The Research Center for Mechanics of Solids, Structures and Materials at the University of Texas at Austin invites applications for an open position as Post-doctoral Fellow. The specific project involves the characterization of the constitutive and failure behavior of structural materials (aluminum alloys, steels, titanium alloys, metal-matrix composites, polymers and other selected materials) under quasi-static and dynamic conditions.
Free access to the International Journal of Fracture
Dear Colleagues,
Springer is providing free access to the International Journal of Fracture until the end of this year. I hope you take advantage of this opportunity and browse through the journal content. You may access the journal at the following link: http://www.springer.com/materials/characterization+%26+evaluation/journal/10704?changeHeader.

The Haythornthwaite Foundation's Founder's Prize for Graduate Students.
The Haythornthwaite Foundation's Founder's Prize Applications for the
annual award are due on October 1, 2011. The Foundation supports
scientific research, primarily research in the field of Theoretical and
Applied Mechanics. The website, which has additional information,
including the entry rules, is at: http://www.haythornthwaite.org/prize.htm
The American Academy of Mechanics is pleased to announce to doctoral candidates in the field of Mechanics up to two Founder Prizes and Grants to be awarded in autumn 2011, arranged by the Robert M. and Mary Haythornthwaite Foundation.
Post-doctoral positions at the University of Texas at Austin
There are three post-doctoral openings at the Research Center for Mechanics of Solids, Structures and Materials at the University of Texas at Austin.
Post-doctoral Position in Biomechanics at University of Texas
The Research Center for Mechanics of Solids, Structures and Materials at
the University of Texas at Austin invites applications for an open
position as Post-doctoral Fellow. The specific project involves collaboration with the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston and requires the Fellow to work at both institutions. The work involves experimental characterization of tissues and surgical remodeling, and development of computational modeling of surgical reconstruction. While specific background in Biomechanics is not necessary, candidates should have a
