Magnetic Soft Materials and Robots: Design (Code), Applications and Future Directions
This post was adopted from a News & Views by Zhao and Kim recently published on Nature [1].
Dear all,
the question is in the title.
I found solutions on the web to make matlab execute an inp file making use of a user subroutine: system(['abaqus job=' Abaqusname ' user=' fortranname ' -inter']). It works well if, prior to the command, a dll file of the fortran file is created and a file 'abaqus_v6.env' is set.
However, if I want to do the same by running, from matlab, the python script which makes use of the same user subroutine, there are errors.
command in matlab: system(['abaqus cae noGUI=script.py']);
Dear all,
Qiming Wang (USC), Lihua Jin (UCLA) and myself (UCSD) will organize 1st southern california mechanics workshop. Please see the flyer attached.
All the best,
shengqiang
The Musculoskeletal Imaging and Orthopaedic Biomechanics (MIOB) Laboratory at the University of Vermont is seeking a graduate student in Mechanical Engineering to start in the Fall semester of 2020.
We are seeking strongly motivated candidates to fill multiple Research Fellow positions in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. The successful candidates will work on experimental and/or computational studies in the area of cell mechanics, tissue morphogenesis, and bio-hybrid soft robotics. We are particularly interested in candidates with research experience in bioengineering, soft materials, mechanobiology and applied mechanics.
I have an opening for a two-year postdoctoral fellowship at Duke University. The postdoctoral fellow will work with PhD students and experimental collaborators on a range of projects dealing with coupled field phenomena and fracture/damage mechanics. Projects here involve collaborations with Duke's medical school as well as researchers at other institutions and the national laboratories.
The Taylor-Quinney coefficient is universally understood as a manifestation of the stored energy of cold work, and one therefore assumes a one to one correspoindence between its value and the microstructural state of the deformed material. In the attached letter (to appear in Phys Rev Letters), we question this assumption by bringing new experimental evidence that the thermomechanical conversion is a function of the kinetics of the process and not of the final microstructure only.
Polytechnique Montréal is looking for a post-doctoral fellow having a very strong training in continuum mechanics/numerical methods to work on the phase field modelling of damage in materials. This one-year project will consist in deploying and applying an existing phase field code at two industrial partners: one in optics and the other in aerospace.
Please send your CVs at my address: martin.levesque(at)polymtl.ca
Deadline for manuscript submissions: 30 November 2019.
