Multiple Postdoctoral Positions in 3D Printing of Soft Materials, Computational Design, and Mechanics of Metamaterials at Johns Hopkins University
The Guest (ce.jhu.edu/topopt), Mueller (muellerlab.com), and Nguyen (nguyenlab.wse.jhu.edu) research groups invite applications for multiple Postdoctoral Fellow positions in Digital Fabrication, Mechanical Metamaterials, and Topology Optimization. The Fellows will be based in one group and have the opportunity to collaborate within an interdisciplinary and highly visible project spanning Johns Hopkins University, a National Lab, and an industry partner.
Discussion of fracture paper #34 - The Physics of Hydrogen Embrittlement
Hydrogen embrittlement causes problems that probably will become apparent to an increasing extent as hydrogen is taken into general use for energy storage and as a fuel for heating and electricity production. According to Wikipedia, the phenomenon has been known since at least 1875. The subject of this blog
A consistent finite-strain plate model for wrinkling of stretched anisotropic hyperelastic films
Stretch-induced wrinkles usually occur in a thin, clamped-clamped, hyperelastic film and eventually disappear upon excess stretching, with wrinkling direction being perpendicular to the stretching direction within isotropic elasticity framework. Here, we consider in-plane anisotropy induced by infilling fibers in thin films, which significantly affects the orientation and amplitude of wrinkles.
MULTISCALE MECHANICS, MULTIPHYSICS MODELING AND SIMULATIONS FOR ENERGY STORAGE
Dear Colleagues,
The Programme of the Euromech Colloquium “MULTISCALE MECHANICS, MULTIPHYSICS MODELING AND SIMULATIONS FOR ENERGY STORAGE” to be held in Sirmione, Italy, 29-31 August, 2022 ( https://617.euromech.org/ ) has been finalized and is attached.
Plenary lectures will be offered by, in alphabetical order :
Improved formulas of extensional and bending stiffnesses of rectangular nanorods
Improved formulas of extensional and bending stiffnesses of isotropic rectangular nanorods are derived. These formulas reduce to the existing widely used formulas for a special choice of material parameters, i.e., when the surface Poisson's ratio and the bulk Poisson's ratio match thus highlighting the limitation of the existing formulas.
