Deadline Oct 15th, 2024: Call for Nominations for the Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty
It is my pleasure to solicit nominations for the "Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty". This award, launched in 2012, is given annually to rapidly emerging junior faculty who exemplify the creative use and development of mechanics. The intent of the award is to promote the field of mechanics, especially among young researchers. While interdisciplinary work that bridges mechanics with physics, chemistry, biology and other disciplines is encouraged, the ideal awardee will demonstrate clear inspiration from mechanics in his/her research.
POST-DOCTORAL FELLOW IN COMPUTATIONAL HEART VALVE BIOMECHANICS
The James T. Willerson Center for Cardiovascular Modeling and Simulation, Oden Institute, the University of Texas, has an opening for a Post-doctoral Fellow in developing new computational approaches for replacement heart valve simulations.
POD–ANN as digital twins for surge line thermal stratification
This paper describes a hybrid proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and artificial neural network (ANN) strategy to construct digital twins of a pressurizer surge line under thermal stratification conditions. The one-way coupled conjugate heat transfer and thermal stress analysis was conducted by use of parametric modeling and the introduction of the inverse distance weighted interpolation for the grid mapping, which allows for the mapped grids to have the same number of nodes regardless of variations of surge line geometries.
