On the Afferrante-Carbone theory of ultratough peeling
I attach a preprint of a note on the elegant and interesting and simple theory by Afferrante and Carbone on ultratough peeling of an elastic tape from a viscoelastic substrate. Any comment is most welcome. Regards, MC
Postdoc openings on metal additive manufacturing at the National University of Singapore
Dr. Wentao Yan's group at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, National University of Singapore (NUS), focuses on metal additive manufacturing: computational modeling, experimental investigation and data analytics.
There are two openings for postdoctoral fellows available immediately. The candidates are required to have expertise in one of the following areas: 1) high-entropy alloys; 2) hot cracking and thermal stress; 3) multiphase/fluid-particle flow modeling. The expertise on additive manufacturing is a plus but not a must.
