Dear colleges, 

My name is Miguel Molinos, I am a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Seville (Spain). My co-workers, Manuel Pastor and Pedro Navas (UPM), and myself are organizing a thematic seminar with the title "Meshfree models for Engineers. Where are they really worthwhile?". The objective of this seminar is to discuss the potential impact that mesh-free methods can have on those engineers working in industry who usually rely on commercial FEM-based programs.

Summary:

Exciting teaching position available at the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Purdue. We are in growth phase and looking for exicitng individuals to work and collaborate with.

Dear all,

In our department there is a vacancy for a tenure-track assistant professor in robotics in structural engineering. More details and the application procedure can be found here: https://www.tudelft.nl/over-tu-delft/werken-bij-tu-delft/vacatures/details?jobId=9028&jobTitle=Assistant%20Professor%20Robotics%20in%20Structural%20Engineering 

Many biological structures exhibit intriguing morphological patterns adapted to environmental cues, which contribute to their important biological functions and also inspire material designs. Here, we report a chiral wrinkling topography in shrinking core–shell spheres, as observed in excessively dehydrated passion fruit and experimentally demonstrated in silicon core–shells under air extraction. Upon shrinkage deformation, the surface initially buckles into a buckyball pattern (periodic hexagons and pentagons) and then transforms into a chiral mode.
