Dear Colleague
Our (open access) paper on the post-touchdown dynamics of an electrostatically actuated MEMS device has just appeared in IJSS:
Nate N. Goldberg and Oliver M. O'Reilly, Electrostatically actuated MEMS in the post-touchdown regime: The thin-dielectric limit and a novel reduced-order model for release dynamics"

Dear colleagues,
We invite you to read our recent article, which proposes a multiband homogenization scheme and has been accepted to appear in JMPS (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S002250962200182X)
Multiband homogenization of metamaterials in real-space: Higher-order nonlocal models and scattering at external surfaces
For students who are attending IMECE this year, there is a wonderful opportunity for you to apply for a travel award ($1000/grad, $500/under). There are a total of 50 travel awards for you to claim. You also have a possibility to win cash awards ($2000 total). You need to submit a poster abstract by 6/29. See https://event.asme.org/IMECE/Program/NSF for more details.

Book of Abstracts, journal publication, lunches, and Coffee breaks are included!
Authors are kindly requested to submit an abstract of no more than 300 words in English. The abstract should state clearly the objective of this work, results, and a brief conclusion. The title of the paper, authors’ name and affiliations, full address, and phone number, fax number, as well as email address of the corresponding author should be included. This conference is dedicated to recent developments in transforming industry through digitalization for environmental and operational sustainability. The topics includes (not limited) to:
Profs. Michael Shields and Lori Graham-Brady at Johns Hopkins University are seeking a postdoctoral scholar for a joint collaborative program on uncertainty quantification of mechanical property predictions based on data-driven and/or machine learning models. In the short term, the focus of this project will be on developing UQ tools for Deep Neural Network models that connect image data to material properties. In the longer term this is expected to expand to a spectrum of ML and other data-driven models.

During the period of October 3 - 7, the course "MECHANICS OF STRONGLY INHOMOGENEOUS MULTI-COMPONENT AND MULTI-LAYERED STRUCTURES" will be held at CISM, Italy. The course is offered in a hybrid format giving the possibility to attend the course also by remote (on Microsoft Teams platform).
Dear members of iMechanica,
The first overlay diamond open access journal in Mechanics, the Journal of Theoretical, Computational and Applied Mechanics https://jtcam.episciences.org aims to select publications of the highest scientific caliber in the form of either original research or review in Solid Mechanics.
We are searching for new handling editors, especially, in South East Asia, India, South America and Africa for a renewable position of 4 years
