Dear Colleagues,
We cordially invite you to submit abstracts to our mini-symposium entitled "Physics-Based and Data-Driven Multiscale Modeling of Nano-Materials" at the 19th U.S. National Congress on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, Austin, Texas, June 19-24, 2022.
Mini-symposium title
2-8 – Mechanics of Soft Robotic Devices
Organisers
Ellen Roche (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Xuanhe Zhao (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Eimear Dolan (NUI Galway)
Mini-symposium description
Summary of the project: The main goal of the research project is to develop an in vivo, ex vivo and in silico platform to provide an enhanced understanding of changes in bone mechanobiology during osteoporotic distraction osteogenesis and fracture healing.
The Maudslay-Butler Research Fellowship in Engineering was established to encourage the highest quality of research in any area of Engineering. The Research Fellow will develop and benefit from close links with the University’s Department of Engineering. The Maudslay Trust, which supports the Research Fellowship, commemorates Henry Maudslay, a pioneering mechanical engineer. We welcome applications from any candidates who have recently completed a Ph.D. or who will be expected to complete their Ph.D.

JOB DESCRIPTION
IHPC is seeking a highly motivated research scientist to conduct research in computational mechanics specifically in soft robotics. The project focuses on developing and adopting large deformation constitutive model for smart materials, simulation of soft robotic behavior with complex contact scenarios, and machine learning study on the dynamics of soft robotic system.
JOB REQUIREMENTS
Postdoc positions are available in the group of Prof. JG Zhu at Jiangsu University, China. Those possessing PhDs in the area of non-destructive technology are sought. We are particularly interested in candidates with experience in optical imaging, signal processing etc. Applicants should submit a full curriculum vitae to zhujg [at] ujs.edu.cn (zhujg[at]ujs[dot]edu[dot]cn) .
FYI, this is a recent review article titled, “Physics of surface vibrational resonances: pillared phononic crystals, metamaterials, and metasurfaces,” which has recently appeared in Reports on Progress in Physics.

Hello eveyone
I am struggling in computing the energy release rates (ERRs) for a kinked carck from an interface crack. I have used the Revised VCCT. I made the calcuations by hand. I wonder if I can implement the kinked crack in Abaqus and let it do the calculations of the ERRs.
