Dear all, I am looking for a postdoctoral job or research position in structral dynamics and the
vibration properites composites materials (especially the viscoelastic damping material based
composite structure.). I will receive my doctor's degree in early of 2017 and expect start the job

Because of the increasing need of energy, the plants installed by electricity supply utilities throughout the world are becoming larger and more highly stressed. Thus, the risk of turbogenerator shaft cracking is increasing also. The development and propagation of a crack represents the most common and trivial beginning of integrity losses in engineering structures.
Dear colleagues,
We would like to invite you to submit abstracts for our mini-symposium (MS61) on Computational Geomechanics in the upcoming EMI conference (June 4-7, 2017) at San Diego. The scope of the mini-symposium is listed below:
Imitating origami principles in active or programmable materials opens the door for development
of origami-inspired self-folding structures for not only aesthetic but also functional purposes. A
variety of programmable materials enabled self-folding structures have been demonstrated across
various fields and scales. These folding structures have finite thickness and the mechanical
properties of the active materials dictate the folding process. Yet formalizing the use of origami
rules for use in computer modeling has been challenging, owing to the zero-thickness theory and

With the development of computer science, the discontinuum-based models are most likely to become the mainstream in the study of solid mechanics especially for rock mechanics.
What's the best open source FE code for nonlinear transient analysis of truss structures (preferably with Python interface)?
Dear all,
I would like to share with you a couple of our recent papers that I think may be of interest for the wider community:
