Faculty positions in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at NC State

Submitted by Yong Zhu on Fri, 10/12/2018 - 12:25

North Carolina State University (NC State) invites applications and nominations for one or more tenure-track faculty positions in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE). Appointments will be targeted at the Assistant Professor level with the expected start date in Fall 2019. Applicants are expected to have a doctoral degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or other closely related fields, before the start date of the position. The search will be conducted in the following three areas:

Post-Doc in Lattice Material - Cambridge

Submitted by Hilde F on Thu, 10/11/2018 - 09:01

job

There is an opportunity to invent interpenetrating lattice materials in order to design SOFT and HARD meta-materials of any given stiffness, strength and toughness. The actuation response due to seepage of a liquid through the lattice needs to be modelled by making use of experimental results from within the group. Currently, lattice materials, such as the 2D honeycomb and the 3D octet truss, exist in a single material on a single length scale. The challenge is to fill the intervening gaps in the lattice with a second lattice in order to improve the macroscopic properties.

What fatigue damage model do you suggest to use in numerical simulations?

Submitted by M. Khorashad on Wed, 10/10/2018 - 08:20

I want to simulate fatigue damage of foams (like PVCs). What fatigue damage model do you suggest? What model is regularly used in Industry? is there any one who simulate fatigue damage in Abaqus?
