Ph.D positions now open (for Fall 2020) in Mechanics, Biomimetics, and 3D Printing Lab at Northeastern University/Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Department. More information about the lab can be found at https://www1.coe.neu.edu/~yaningli/home.html

Please directly send CV to Prof. Yaning Li at: y.li [at] northeastern.edu  

One PhD position is available for Fall 2020 in Advanced Multifunctional and Multiphysics Metamaterials Lab (AM³L) in the Bioresource Engineering Department of McGill University. The research topic is on the area of Mechanics of Architected Multifunctional Materials. Theoretical and computational multiscale modelling along with experimental (3D printing and characterization) studies will be conducted for nonlinear and multiphysics analysis of rationally-designed architected materials. The candidate will work under the supervision of Dr.

The eigenfunction method pioneered by Galin (J Appl Math Mech 40: 981–986, 1976) is extended to provide a general solution to the transient evolution of contact pressure and wear of two sliding elastic half-planes, under the assumption that there is full contact and that the Archard–Reye wear law applies. The governing equations are first developed for sinusoidal profiles with exponential growth rates. The contact condition and the wear law lead to a characteristic equation for the growth rate and more general solutions are developed by superposition.

JRF Position in SERB Sponsored Research Project

Mahindra École Centrale, Hyderabad invites applications for the post of a Junior Research Fellow (JRF) in the SERB sponsored project entitled “Role of antiplane slip waves in rupture dynamics”. The project will involve analytical and numerical studies of a new type of an interfacial elastic wave called the antiplane slip wave.

Dear Colleagues:

Engineering Mechanics Institute Conference(EMI2020) and Probalistic Mechanics and Reliability Conference(PMC2020) will be held at Columbia University in the upper west side of New York City, May 26-29, 2020 (https://www.emi-conference.org/).

As a part of this meeting, we are organizing a mini-symposium to address recent advances in the Mechanics of Superconducting Materials and Structures and Related Materials at Cryogenic Temperatures.

The Mechanics and Energy Laboratory within the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department at Northwestern University, directed by Prof. Alessandro F. Rotta Loria, is looking to hire a post-doctoral researcher.

You are cordially invited to submit an abstract to 16^th International Symposium on Functionally Graded Materials in Hartford, Connecticut, USA, 2020 (Dates: August 9-12, 2020).
