We will be teaching a short course on residual stress on June 12, 2022 at the SEM Experimental Mechanics conference in Pittsburgh.
See below and https://sem.org/annual (under PROGRAMS/COURSES) for details.
Residual stress short courses don't happen too often. The course should be appropriate for students, industrialists, and researchers. Hope you can make it. The proceeds all benefit SEM.

After the first two successful editions in 2015 and 2019, with the
enthusiastic participation of students and young researchers from all over the world, the third
edition of the international Summer School on Fatigue and Damage Mechanics of Composites
will be held in Vicenza (Italy) from the 4th to the 8th of July 2022. The venue is the Department
of Management and Engineering, campus of the University of Padova in Vicenza. The School has
already received the patronage of ESCM (the European Society for Composite Materials), AIAS
(the Italian Society for Mechanical Design), Assocompositi (the Italian Association of Composite
Industries) and IGF (the Italian Group of Fracture).
The School aims at providing young scientists and engineers both from Academia and Industry
with the unique opportunity to meet and learn from leading international experts about
advances in the fatigue and damage mechanics of polymer-based composite materials.
Based on the experience and the feedback received after the first editions, the format will be
improved with more tailored theoretical sections, hands-on activities and the presentation of
industrial application cases provided by experts of leading worldwide companies. Particular
attention will be always devoted to the understanding of damage mechanisms and the paths to
incorporate them into predictive models.
During the five-day program, senior researchers and industry representatives will provide
lectures on experimental techniques for damage investigations, damage evolution under
fatigue, analytical and numerical damage modelling, structural health monitoring and examples
of design against damage in advanced industrial applications.

International Journal on Obstetrics and Gynecology (IJOG)
Introduction: Gynecology is a field of study that deals with the Women’s Health, Female Reproductive System (Vagina, Uterus, Ovaries). Whereas Obstetrics mostly deals with Childbirth, Pregnancy and Postpartum Period. Generally, in medical specialty Gynecology and Obstetrics are combined.
On behalf of the organizing committee, it is our pleasure to announce the eleventh iteration of the Computational Materials Science Summer School at Texas A&M University, CMS3. The school will take place in College Station, TX from July 11 – 22, 2022 and will also be offered online. Application deadline is April 15, 2022.

We have several Ph.D. positions available in our group (https://sites.usc.edu/zhaogroup/) in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at University of Southern California for Fall 2022. We are an interdesciplinary group with broad interests in experimental mechanics, advanced materials, and manufacturing. Our focus areas include 3D soft electronics, engineered surfaces/interfaces, and active/smart materials. Candidates interested in these areas are encouraged to submit applications to our Ph.D.
