There are a couple of funded PhD positions available at the University of Auckland, New Zealand.
The topics are, roughly,
1) Advanced material models and variability
2) Biomimetic sensing and adhesion.
The deadline for applications is Friday, October 29, 2010. Please send a current CV, a statement of purpose, and transcripts/grades from your undergraduate work (and master's work if you have a master's degree in a related field).
All, I am conducting a survey and your response would be very much appreciated. The purpose of the survey is to gather data that will help the developers of open source software improve the success of their projects. All replies received before midnight Sunday 26th September will be entered into a draw for a £30 Amazon gift voucher.

This session will provide a forum for engineers and scientists alike to present their latest findings on the subject of computer aided modeling, simulation and analysis. Specific topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Hi
I want to model a plate that connected with stiffening beams in ANSYS.
beams and plates has rigidly connected together, and there were no joints.
for model this, I first make an area and secondly extend this area to make a volume.
then I divide this volume to seperate plate and beams.
this is my question :
what relation exist berween components when they divide from one volume.
I mean suppose we have a volume, then we divide it in to two parts, what relation exist between this two new
Using the method of anharmonic lattice statics, we calculate the equilibrium structure of steps on 180^o ferroelectric domain
