On behalf of the International Institute for Multifunctional Materials for Energy Conversion (IIMEC) and the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Texas A&M, we would like to announce the 5th Summer School on Computational Materials Science Across Scales. The 2016 IIMEC Summer School will be held from July 18 to July 29, 2016 on the Texas A&M University campus in College Station, Texas.
One Internet, multiple worlds. People have gone mobile, but iMechanica has not. Although iMechanica is accessible from mobile phones, but it was not designed as such. On the other hand, mobile social networks are good mostly for short forms. A practical solution seems to be posting on iMechanica and linking the entries to social networks, such as twitter, wechat, and Facebook. For example, The New Yorker has a strong presence on Facebook, as my sons and their friends would say.
Dear all,
Happy new year. My supervisor (http://www.mun.ca/engineering/about/people/bipulhawlader.php) is currently looking for potential PhD students. If you are highly interested and motivated to join our group, please E-mail at sujan95 [at] gmail.com. Do not hesitate to knock me if you have any questions.
Thank you very much.
Regards,
Sujan Dutta.
I'm Xiaoliang Fang from BeiHang University, China, and I am applying a doctoral study.

... We do not assume any of those words make any kind of sense, though we do make certain assumptions about how much time the reader has on her hands and what kind of sense of humor she has.
I urge you to read the rest of the dissertation.
These slides are used in a course on Plastic Deformation in Crystalline Solids.
The 4th edition of the International Conference of Nanomechanics and Nanocomposites (ICNN) will be held in Vicenza from 14th to 17th of September 2016.

With a growing interest in soft materials, stability and bifurcation analysis is re-emerging to be a critical topic for mechanicians. There are some excellent books out there but most tend to focus on finite dimensional systems rather than (continuous) infinite dimensional systems which are of most interest to mechanicians. In general, much of the modern developments on this topic are scattered across journal papers and perhaps there are not too many pedagogical resources for beginners.
