Research Associate Position in SERB sponsored Project
Applications are invited for the post of Research Associate (RA) in a project sponsored by the Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB) under the Core Research Group (CRG) scheme entitled “Dynamic fracture at a non-planar interface” (File No. CRG/2022/004550) sanctioned to Prof. Ranjith Kunnath at Mahindra University. The project involves developing mathematical formulations for dynamic fracture problems and their numerical implementation.
PhD and Master’s Positions in Soft Tissue Mechanics
The LESION (CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM BIOMECHANICS) Laboratory at the University of Mississippi's Department of Biomedical Engineering is seeking graduate students (PhD, MSc).
The LESION Lab aims to develop imaging and modeling tools for the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of central nervous system disorders, with a particular focus on diseases related to the eye and brain, such as glaucoma and traumatic brain injury.
About plastic anisotropy and thermomechanical coupling
A point that has been overlooked is whether plastic anisotropy affects the thermomechanical coupling, expressed via the Taylor Quinney coefficient.
In a paper to appear in IJ. Eng. Sc., Gleb Gil Goviazin and I address this issue experimentally. The abstract follows:
An nteresting point that G. Goviazin and I report about in a paper to appear in Int. J. Eng. Science.

Dynamic Hardness Evolution in Metals from Impact Induced Gradient Dislocation Density
Dear Colleagues,
I invite you to read our recent publication on Acta Materialia on the dynamic hardness evolution in metals.
Finite Extension of Accreting Nonlinear Elastic Solid Circular Cylinders
In this paper we formulate and solve the initial-boundary value problem of accreting circular cylindrical bars under finite extension. We assume that the bar grows by printing stress-free cylindrical layers on its boundary cylinder while it is undergoing a time-dependent finite extension. Accretion induces eigenstrains, and consequently residual stresses. We formulate the anelasticity problem by first constructing the natural Riemannian metric of the growing bar. This metric explicitly depends on the history of deformation during the accretion process.
