I need to make high quality 3D and 2D schematic and real images from the data for my papers. I was wondering which software do you recommend?
Thank you in advance for your time.
We report the observation of remarkable electrical self-healing in mechanically damaged ZnO nanobelts. Nanoindentation into intrinsically defect-free ZnO nanobelts induces deformation and crack damage, causing a dramatic electrical signal decrease. Two self-healing regimes in the nanoindented ZnO nanobelts are revealed. The physical mechanism for the observed phenomena is analyzed in terms of the nanoindentation-induced dislocations, the short-range atomic diffusion in nanostructures, and the local heating of the dislocation zone in the electrical measurement.

Dear Fellows,
I am working in the field of thermoelasticity deformation, I need a book to understand the basics of this field.
thermoelastic deformation
by Dorin Leson
In the continuous theory of defects in nonlinear elastic solids, it is known that a distribution of disclinations leads, in general, to a non-trivial residual stress field. To study this problem we consider the particular case of determining the residual stress field of a cylindrically-symmetric distribution of parallel wedge disclinations. We first use the tools of differential geometry to construct a Riemaniann material manifold in which the body is stress-free. This manifold is metric compatible, has zero torsion, but has non-vanishing curvature.
I have a one-year vacant postdoc position. The work will be mostly related to development of FE models for modeling growth, differentiation, and adaptation of biological tissues. The postdoc needs to know a lot about nonlinear continuum mechanics and advanced material models and should be able to write FE codes and implement advanced material models in commercial FE programs.
This year the Annual ASME Applied Mechanics Division Honors and Awards Banquet was held on Tuesday, November 15, 2011 in Denver Colorado. I had the pleasure of presiding over the evening and distributing the AMD Division awards, AMD Student Paper Competition awards, and AMD-Haythornthwaite Foundation Travel Awards. Below is a list of all the award recipients and I have attached a PDF with pictures of the awardees that evening.
