Orientation-dependent plasticity mechanisms control synergistic property improvement in dynamically deformed metals

Submitted by Ramathasan The… on

Dear Colleagues,

I invite you to read our recent paper on the orientation dependent plasticity mechanisms that control the dynamic creation of nanostructures and their  behavior under subsequent quasistatic microcompression published in the International Journal of Plasticityhttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijplas.2023.103657

Synergistic strength and toughness through impact-induced nanostructural evolutions in metals

Submitted by Ramathasan The… on

Dear Colleagues,

I invite you to read our recent paper on the process-structure-property relations in heterogeneous nanostructured metals created through a laser induced projectile impact of single crystal microcubes published in the Extreme Mechanics Lettershttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.eml.2023.102037

Constitutive theory for gels by considering molecular frictions

Submitted by bin.chen on

By directly considering molecular frictions induced on polymer chains, we have developed a nonaffine constitutive theory for large stretch behaviors of gels.

Postdoctoral position at the University of Milan

Submitted by zapperi on

We will have an opening for a postdoctoral position at the CC&B, University of Milan in the group of Prof. Zapperi.  We are looking for candidates with strong programming skills who are interested in working at the frontier between academic and industrial research. The candidates should have a Ph. D in computer science, computational materials science, physics, mathematics or engineering.

Seeking a Postdoc Position in Computational Mechanics and Machine Learning

Submitted by gjwang on

I am a postdoc in the department of mechanical and aerospace engineering at UCLA.  I got a bachelor's degree in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics from Harbin Institute of Technology (ranking 1st in our major). I obtained my PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Maryland, College Park.

Prof. Zdenek Bazant Plenary Lecture at ICDM 4 in Baton Rouge

Submitted by Cemal Basaran on

Prof. Zdenek Bazant (Northwestern University, USA) sent me a copy of the plenary lecture he delivered at Int. Conf. on Damage Mechanics 4 at LSU on May 15, 2023, to be posted. The lecture is about a critique of the theoretical inconsistencies in the Phase Field and Peridynamics techniques. Remarkably interesting talk that will create a significant discussion about the validity of these methods..

 

Postdoc (2 years) on Machine learning techniques for interpretation of vibrational data

Submitted by wvpaepeg on

Additive manufacturing of metal alloys yields great potential for the aerospace industry (and others) as it allows the generation of geometrically complex structures with high specific strength, low density and high corrosion resistance. For example, General Electric has demonstrated the possibility of printing titanium fuel injectors for their LEAP engine, Boeing incorporated more than 300 printed parts in their 777X airplane … For such critical applications, the structural quality of printed parts is of utmost importance. Small deviations in print conditions, e.g.
