Two postdoctoral positions available at UBC

Submitted by mponga on

Two postdoctoral positions are available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Vancouver Campus. The positions are described below and involve the use of large-scale ab-initio simulations in combination with machine learning models to accelerate materials discovery. The positions are funded for two-years and available in the modelling and simulation group, lead by Prof. Mauricio Ponga.

 

Webinar on Implant Selection and Positioning, Apr 29th, 2020

Submitted by Philippe on

You are welcome to join this webinar on implant selection and positioning in Simpleware software. The 15-minute webinar shows some of the recent developments we've made in selecting and positioning CAD implants within computed tomography (CT) image data.

The webinar will look at the case of a CT torso scan to discuss different measurement techniques in Simpleware ScanIP, and how to create orthopedic models for 3D printing, Finite Element Analysis, and CAD.

Registration is available here.

Cementitious cellular composites with auxetic behavior

Submitted by shavijabranko on

Dear all,

Our research group has, for the first time, developed a cementitious material with auxetic behavior. This was achieved with the aid of negative based 3D printing. A recently published article on the topic can be viewed at: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/340586551_Cementitious_cellula…;

Regards,

Branko
