The Materials Department and the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UCSB invites applications for post-doctoral fellowships in computational mechanics, with an emphasis on (1) micromechanics of layered systems and (2) high temperature composites. The position involves significant collaboration with a wide variety of colleagues working on many aspects of structural materials, including those in industry and other academic institutions. Preference will be given to applicants with a strong track record of publication.

I’m very much obliged to you if you would be so kinds help me.  I am trying to design washing machine. Initially I want to try doing a static analysis. For this, I have modeled cylinder (shell) and, placing them on the solid ribs. After this i have applied boundary condition to the assembly, and also a load (centrifugal). For only Tie connection between cylinder and rib, I got simulation but less strain at rib region.

A new doctoral college, Energy Systems 2030, is about to start at Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien), Vienna, Austria.

A one-page flyer is available at http://www.ilsb.tuwien.ac.at/gener/DC_ENSYS_e.pdf and the doctoal college's web page can be found at http://ensys2030.tuwien.ac.at/EN/.

Within ENSYS 2030 there are 10 openings for doctoral students. Applications can be filed from August 5, 2010.

Hi there,

 Recently I have modelled a 2D block of soil, at the first step of analysis the soil block subjected to a gravitational load (Gravity) and gravitational stresses generated in the soil block, at the second step, a little rectangular part of soil block removed and currently a concrete block with same size of removed soil embedded on the soil block. this concrete block to be subjected a surface loading.
