Dear colleagues,
enclosed you find the first announcement of the International Workshop on
__________________________________________
Adhesion and Friction:
Simulation, Experiment,
Applications
to be held from November 13 - 16, 2017
at the Technische Universität Berlin.

The Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute at Johns Hopkins University invites applications for a research professor (at any rank) in the broad area of dynamic behavior of materials and structures. See attached for more information.
We are looking for highly motivated and creative PhD researchers to study electromechanical transduction at the nanoscale. It is well known that by deforming some materials (piezoelectrics) electricity can be produced. What is a relatively new discovery is that by bending any dielectric at the nanoscale, significant electrical signals can also be generated. This is the so-called flexoelectric effect.
Dear all
Our group has recently published an article on experimental and numerical analysis of failure modes in concrete repair systems due to ongoing reinforcement corrosion.
Abstract:
Positions are available to work in cutting edge areas of theoretical and computational solid mechanics. Interested students can later convert this to a formal M.Tech or PhD program.
The candidate will officially be associated with the Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Hyderabad, India.

Good morning,
Hope everyone is doing fine this weekend. I have a problem with abaqus stated in the title of this post and hope to find some wisdoms here.
Bascially, I would like to perform a dynamic explicit analysis from a static analysis and I set up the process in CAE as follows:
Step -> restart requests -> frequency 1.
We invite you to submit your abstract for the symposium, "Failure and Damage in Soft Materials: From Cavitation to Cracking", at the 54th annual technical meeting of the Society of Engineering Science (SES 2017), July 25-28, in Boston MA. Information about the meeting may be found at http://www.northeastern.edu/ses2017/
I hope some of you may find this work interesting, the X-FEM non-linear code developed (incorporating linear elasticity, J2 plasticity, and Strain Gradient Plasticity) can be downloaded from www.empaneda.com/codes
