experimental solid mechanics

We are delighted to announce the 11th European Solid Mechanics Conference that will be held at the National University of Ireland Galway, in the city of Galway, Ireland, 4 – 8 July, 2022. The conference website is: www.esmc2022.org. The conference is being held under the auspices of the European Mechanics Society (EUROMECH www.euromech.org).

Prof. Vijay Chalivendra is looking for a student who is interested to pursue doctoral studies in his research lab at University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, starting fall 2021. The applicant should have either completed Master's degree or is planning to graduate in May 2021 with Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering. The preference will be given for a student who has research experience in experimental solid mechanics and published one or two peer-reviewed journal articles.

On September 3-4 2018 at the University of Southampton, there will be a 2-day intensice course on the Virtual Fields Method (VFM) with special focus on transient dynamics, with a view to identify mechanical properties of materials at high strain rates from full-field measurements using ultra-high speed imaging. This is part of the PhotoDyn project: www.photodyn.org. The programme can be downloaded here.
