Post-doctoral associate position at Dartmouth College

Submitted by songbai on

A post-doctoral associate position jointly funded by the NIH and NOCSAE is available at the Thayer School of Engineering, Dartmouth College. This position will support research in biomechanics of the human brain in vivo and the mechanisms of traumatic brain injury in the context of sports-related concussion, using stereovision, image-analysis, and finite element modeling. Interested applicants please send a cover letter, CV, and a list of 3 professional references to Songbai DOT Ji AT Dartmouth.edu. This position will remain open until filled.

Postdoc positions at MIT's Department of Materials Science and Engineering

Submitted by demkowicz on

Postdoctoral positions are currently available at MIT's Department of Materials Science and Engineering for individuals with a strong background in atomistic materials simulations (both classical potential or first principles). Projects will focus on properties of heterophase interfaces and amorphous materials. There are no citizenship requirements associated with these positions. A Ph.D. in Materials Science or related field completed within the past 5 years is required.

Thermal-fluid structural analysis

Submitted by miroslav1312 on

Hello,everybody

 Can somebody help me,I need to do a thermal -fluid-structural analysis in abaqus.I did thermal-structural but alsoi i need to add CFD anylysis of natural convectio

the best way in abaqus..Is it possible to calculate natural convection and buyoancy drivenn flow in abaqus CFD as a coupled problem with thermal-structural analysis

if yes,how? 

Thank you for every idea

 

 

request for recommendations for contemporary topics in undergrad mechanics of materials class

Submitted by yawlou on

 

Hello everyone,

  I am currently teaching an undergraduate mechanics of materials course.  I would like to spend one class period on contemporary issues.  I am wondering what suggestions mechanicians may have.  I have noticed in recent years that several topics are of interest.

1. thin films

2. soft tissue/soft materials

3. fracture mechanics

(I must add I personally don't know much about these, but I see these come up often. )

Sorry 

I beg your pordone  if post the comments sequentially.

 My mean was that if i want to define it in the subroutine, is it true??? 

Thanks 

 

WAW-100 and 600kN load capacity of Elctrohydrualic sero Universal Testing Machine how to fix or Adjust strain rate

Submitted by dawit2012 on

Hi, i am going to run my Experiment for tensile testing of different steel samples at different strain rates ofcourse it is Medium strain rate (1*10-1  - 1*103 s-1 ). and my quetion here is how to adjust my strain rates on this machine? is the cross head speed a strain rate?  if that is the case i think the cross head speed of the machine i am going to use is max. 15 mm/s. so  it is very small for my ranges to apply . any one can help me or give me comment on this issue.

I appriciate any help that comes to me.

thank you
