Postdoctoral position - nonlinear dynamics
Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar (IITGN) invites applications for a postdoctoral position from motivated individuals interested in modeling and simulation research in Nonlinear Dynamics (supervised by Profs. Pratyush Dayal and Gaurav Srivastava). These applications are sought under Post-Doctoral Fellowships Program of IITGN. The candidate will be required to develop a fully functional suite of computational tools to perform multiphysics modeling and simulation studies on soft materials.
Seminal research work: in-situ mechanical testing under electron microscope
A lot work has been done/published in the area of in-situ mechanical testing using electron microscopy. Please list which, according to what you feel has had a significant impact. Here are two in my opinion:
Uchic, M. D., Dimiduk, D. M., Florando, J. N., & Nix, W. D. (2004). Sample dimensions influence strength and crystal plasticity. Science, 305(5686), 986-989.
iMechanica has been upgraded
Harvard IT has recently upgraded iMechanica to a new server. In addition, iMechanica is now powered by a new version of Drupal. These changes may affect your use of iMechanica. Please let us know if you find something wrong. Thank you.
Bioinspiration and biointegration
The nervous system has long been an inspiration for the engineer. Here is an example in a popular textbook on neuroscience. When a person steps on a nail, the sensor in his foot sends a signal to his brain, the brain sends a signal to his muscle, and he lifts his foot. The example illustrates the sensor, actuator and processor in the nervous system.
postdoctoral position - isogeometric analysis
IMATI-CNR and the Mathematics Department of the University of Pavia offer a postdoc position on isogeometric analysis. This research project focuses on the design and implementation of innovative isogeometric methods for solid/fluid mechanics. In particular the target applications are related to
- nearly-incompressible and fibered materials
- fluids in geological formations
This research project is partially supported by the private sector, and is supervised by Annalisa Buffa and Giancarlo Sangalli.
Looking for a Postdoc position in the filed of vibration aided fault diagnosis
I am going to finnish my Ph.D. of mechanical engineering with a thesis in the field of vibration assisted fault diagnosis in about 3 months. My main field of research is vibration and I have worked extensively on gear systemes vibration modeling and diagnostics.
Currently I am looking for a postdoc position at which I can continue my researches in the abovesaid fields.

Cohesive Zone Model in ANSYS
Hello Everyone,
I am trying to model a propagation of fluid-driven crack in ansys apdl and I have the following questions:
positional finite element
hello Dear friends
positional fem is introduced by H.B. Coda for studing geometrically nonlinear analysis of 2D beam. I need some information about implementing of this formulation.is there anaone who can help me.
best regards.
