To the Editors of EML
Dear Editors,
The first step of starting EML looks promising and with the help of academic people in this community, I think EML has generated enough heat with lots of interesting view points.
We all know that there has been lots of discussion in the imechanica community regarding open source journals, had any one thought about making EML fully open source?.
Thanks and Regards,
Rohith
ABAQUS: nice colorbar ranges
I have produced a python script that automates setting up reasonable values in the ABAQUS/CAE colorbar, basically setting up Tecplot functionality. After executing the script from File->Run Script, you have access to a function that you can call in the built-in interpreter,
>>> SetContourRange(minval, maxval)
>>> SetContourRange(minval, maxval)
Simpleware Case Study: Evaluating Wheelchair Cushion Designs
In this study, researchers at Tel Aviv University and ROHO Inc. analysed how wheelchair cushion design affects the risk of pressure ulcers. MRI data of a male subject was used to generate a robust 3D model in Simpleware software for Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of stresses in FEBio. Comparisons were made between different types of wheelchair cushions to determine how they respond to pressures. The study was successful at evaluating the effectiveness of FE modelling for studying interactions between wheelchair users and equipment.

Faculty recruitment at Penn State
Dear Colleagues,
Penn State University Mechanical Engineering is accepting applications for five tenure track faculty positions. Please see the website for details
http://www.mne.psu.edu/About/PSU_MNE_Faculty%20Positions_2014.pdf
For the emerging areas - we are looking at themes such as additive manufacturing, metamaterials, 2D materials, data driven modeling, extreme environment mechanics or a fusion of these.
What do we want EML to be? How do we get there?
Starting a new journal is risky. Starting a new journal in mechanics is particularly risky. The responses to the two recent posts are encouraging, however.
Within two weeks since the first post, the combined reads of the two entries have passed 20,000.
I'm looking for PhD position [Concrete fracture-FRP bars]
Hi;
I'm a civil & structural engineer, I got recently my Magister degree in civil engineering. I worked on the numerical modeing of concrete fracture of reiforced concrete elements reinforced with FRP bars. I've used ADINA software in my numerical study (smeared crack model). Now I'm looking for a PhD scholarship to complete my research either in concrete fracture modeling or in the composite materials, please I need your help?. Many thanks
