fracture instability

This paper presents a stability analysis for fractal cracks. First, the Westergaard stress functions are proposed for semi-infinite and finite smooth cracks embedded in the stress fields associated with the corresponding self-affine fractal cracks. These new stress functions satisfy all the required boundary conditions and according to Wnuk and Yavari's embedded crack model they are used to derive the stress and displacement fields generated around a fractal crack.

job

A postdoctoral research position is available in Dr.Katherine Yanhag Zhang’s lab in the Mechanical Engineering Department at BostonUniversity. We are looking for a self-motivated researcher to work on projectson multi-scale modeling of extracellular matrix (ECM) mechanics in vascularremodeling. The selected candidate will work on developing a predictivemechanobiology model of ECM mechanics to provide a clinical relevantrelationship between biomechanical integrity, biochemical compositionstability, and microstructure of the ECM.
