The Executive Committee of the ASME Applied Mechanics Division is pleased to announce and congratulate both Professor Dennis Kochmann, Professor of Mechanics and Materials, ETH Zürich, and Professor Liping Liu, Associate Professor of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering, Rutgers University, as the joint recipients of the 2018 Thomas J. R.
In this paper, a new reaction-diffusion model, coupling the reversible electrochemical reaction, Lithium (Li) diffusion, and bending, is proposed to investigate the curvature, neutral axis movement, and stress in bilayer electrode. Bending curvature and stress, for the first time, are analytically and numerically investigated relate to both the diffusion and the reversible electrochemical reaction. The results reveal that the reversible electrochemical reaction retards the lithiation process, leading to the slowing down of diffusion process.
I would like to raise your attention to the following prestigious European fellowship opportunity:
-> 90 postdoctoral positions available for applicants from all over the world to work for two years in the best research universities in the Netherlands. Applicants choose the research topic and advisor to work on the application.

Dear Colleagues,
The 18th USNC/TAM will be hosted by Northwestern University, at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare from June 5 to June 9, 2018. The abstract submission deadline for the USNC/TAM 2018 is extended to November 25, 2017.
The Symposium 324 is about the Mechanics of Irradiated Structural Materials, as introduced at http://sites.northwestern.edu/usnctam2018/324-symposium-28-mechanics-of-irradiated-structural-materials/
Professor Kurkarni (University of Houston) has published a very nice perspective paper "Thermal Fluctuations as a Computational Microscope for Studying Crystalline Interfaces: A Mechanistic Perspective," in the December, 2017 issue of Journal of Applied Mechanics (JAM). The paper is attached.
The perspective papers in JAM are invited short papers on an emerging field in mechanics, or some important new developments in an existing field in mechanics.
Dear Colleagues,
We would like to cordially invite you to submit an abstract to Symposium #341 “Mechanics of Heterogeneous Soft Materials on Flexible Structures” at the 18th U.S. National Congress on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (USNC/TAM).
The conference this year is hosted by Northwestern University and will be held at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare in Chicago from June 4 to June 9, 2018.
Dear Colleague, We would like to bring your last attention and invite you and your students/postdoc to submit abstracts for oral presentations to Symposium 356 on “Mechanics and Design of Mechanical Metamaterials” under the umbrella of “Phononics And Metamaterials” at the 18th U.S.
