Dear Colleagues,

Abstract submission is still open for the USACM Thematic Conference on Uncertainty Quantification for Machine Learning Integrated Physics Modeling (MLIP) which will be held in Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia, August 18-19, 2022. The deadline for submission has been extended to May 15. More information can be found on the conference website. Please consider submitting and/or registering!

On behalf of the organizing committee, Johann

Are you interested in pursuing an international PhD in the area of Computational Mechanics? 

A postdoctoral associate and Phd positions are available at Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University with Prof. Wei Gao. Both positions can start as early as 8/16/2022. The research project will focus broadly on studying the mechanics of materials with multsicale modeling combined with AI and machine learning methods.  The work is highly interdisciplinary and involves collaborations with experimentalists at TAMU. You may read more about Prof. Gao’s research at www.gao-group.org.

My group in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Michigan State University has funded Ph.D. positions starting in Spring/Fall 2023. Domestic applicants with no need to attain visas can also be considered in Fall 2022.

Position is immediately available and needs to be filled soon. Interested candidate can contact me at email below.

Dear All,

The 33rd Annual Robert J. Melosh Competition for the Best Student Paper in Computational Mechanics will be held at Duke University on October 21st, 2022.

The Computational Mechanics and Methods Group (CM3) in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Kentucky is seeking highly self-motivated individuals who have great interest in the broad research area of computational solid mechanics and methods. Ideal applicants should have strong background in solid mechanics and great interest in computational modeling & simulation. Related research experience in material failure modeling and simulation is a plus.
