Dear Fellow Mechanicians,
We are excited to announce that the Society for Natural Philosophy, originally founded by Clifford Truesdell in 1963, will hold its annual meeting in Paris from October 16 to 18, 2023. The Society is devoted to the unity of the mathematical and physical sciences, and this year's conference will particularly focus on the following topics:
Soft biological tissues often exhibit notable strain stiffening under increasing stretch, and this can have significant effects on tissue growth and morphological development, such as causing symmetry breaking in growing airways and leading to mucosal folding and airway hyperresponsiveness. To investigate the role of strain stiffening and the multifactorial control in growth and remodeling, we consider a growing tubular structure with strain-stiffening effects caused by increased and tightened collagen.
Mechanical Metamaterials (ASME IMECE 2023)
Topic 04-03 (Materials) or Topic 12-07 (Applied Mechanics)
you want to connect experimental, theoretical, and numerical know how in the description of biological tissues? Spending the week August 27 to September 1st in Stockholm at our Computational Tissue Biomechanics Summer school is then recommended.
+ learn about the function of many biological tissues.
+ consolidate the essentials of continuum biomechanics and FEM.
+ power your studies by addressing the different (engineering, biological and clinical) aspects of tissue biomechanics.
I am looking for a PhD student in the area of solid mechanics. Some topics of interest are dynamic fracture and faulting, computational mechanics, wave propagation and mechanical metamaterials. My group's work is supported by the Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB) and the National Supercomputing Mission (NSM).
