Dear Colleagues,
Micromachines (ISSN 2072-666X, IF 2.891) is currently running a Special Issue entitled “Novel Devices and Advanced Fabrication in Emerging Bioinspired Systems”. I’m serving as the Guest Editor for this themed issue which is open for submission now.
Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Connecticut, USA, invites applications for Postdoctoral fellow in the Laboratory for Advanced Manufacturing Reliability (https://k-kim.org/).
1-year appointment, renewable by mutual agreement. The candidate is expected to join the team as soon as a successful interview has been completed.
The NVH and Experimental Mechanics Laboratory (NVHEM) at Kettering University invites applications for an immediate visiting scholar position to help in developing a nonlinear model for multibody simulations. The project is sponsored by one of the major automakers in Michigan.
In this work, a new mixed finite element formulation is presented for the analysis of two-dimensional compressible solids in finite strain regime. A three-field Hu-Washizu functional, with displacement, displacement gradient and stress tensor considered as independent fields, is utilized to develop the formulation in spatial configuration. Certain constraints are imposed on displacement gradient and stress tensor so that they satisfy the required continuity conditions across the boundary of elements.
The objective of GISTEAMMM is to characterize the grain structure generated by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) process at track scale: one track or single wall with several tracks, in which the grain structures will be obtained by both experiment and thermo-metallurgical-mechanical modelling. The anisotropic elastic-viscoplastic material laws at grain levels are expected to be extracted by considering the influence of inherent residual stress generated during printing process.
The Center for Material Forming (Cemef) at Mines Paris (PSL University) is looking for a candidate for a PhD position on the computational modeling of sheet metal forming.
The project focuses on remeshing strategies for localized strain phenomena in automobile applications.
The industrial partner is for the moment undisclosed.
