Research Fellowship/Assistantship Opening at Utah State University

Submitted by Anna Y Xue on Thu, 09/04/2008 - 00:50

Post-Doctoral Fellowship: Looking for energetic researchers with strong background in constitutive modeling or multiscale material simulations. Specialty on fatigue and fracture of metals, polymer or short fiber composites is a plus. The primary research will be focused on physics-based damage, fracture, and fatigue modeling and simulations at various scales. If interested, please contact Dr. Yibin Xue via email or visit her website.

education

Continuum Kinematics

I post some (hand-written) notes on compatibility conditions for both small and finite strains that I have used for helping me in lecturing. These may be useful for our student friends on imechanica. I also post a paper on compatibility conditions for the Left Cauchy-Green field in three dimensions as well as the paper by Janet Blume on the same subject.

Numerical simulation results(part1): fracture of multiphase micro flow

explanation:

For the 090*_consise.doc files, down load it and rename it to 090*_consise.avi, then you can open it with winplay

e.g 0903_consie.doc 0903_consise.avi
