- I took one undergraduate classical Solid Mechanics course.
- Mechanical Engineering undergraduate degree (Bucknell University).
-Strengths - most of the concepts aren't new since they were introduced in undergrad solids. I've never used index notation before and it's been a long time since I took multivariable calc and diff eq. so my math is a little iffy.
-Microrobotics Lab (Woodgroup)
-Autonomous biomimetic microrobotics
help.....i am a first year undergraduate student.
how do i can design a delay switch mechanism using a dashpot.with the condition below:
a)time delay required 3seconds.Diameter at mechanism 74cm use suitable viscocity.
b)propose a refinement so that switch rate progresively slower.
so,where can i get this type of the information,how can start to do it?
thanks...
An updated Call for Nominations for the awards administered by the Applied Mechanics Division has been posted on the AMD website. Please nominate worthy candidates to these awards.
A new award, named the Thomas K. Caughey Dynamics Award will be awarded for the first time in 2008. In addition, the Applied Mechanics Division Award and the Young Investigator Award have been endowed by the friends of Ted Belytschko and Thomas J.R. Hughes respectively.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering seeks an outstanding

Hi everyone,
Anyone can tell me how to determine the fracture energy for crack propagation in a 4 points bending notched beam (mode I)?
I am pleased to announce that Volume 1, Number 1 (January 2008) of the Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials is published in both print and online on ScienceDirect. This first issue contains three excellent review articles on bone and dentin, human enamel, and biocompatability of Ti-alloys as well as eight research papers.
I am very pleased to see the way you approach things to fulfil the interest of us and choose the right compromiser. In this method of teaching and learning we can work on or weaknesses i.e. not paying attention to the lecturer, but now everybody have to listen and write it again in order to get a mark. It is also a fair system to everyone to get what they deserve and work hard to achieve their mission.
The Website CreateChange has recently done a Q&A with me. Here is the transcript.
A technique for setting up generalized continuum theories based on a balance law and nonlocal thermodynamics is suggested. The methodology does not require the introduction of gradients of the internal variable in the free energy. Elements of a generalized damage model with porosity as the internal variable are developed as an example.
