Nonlinear free and forced vibration analysis of a single-walled carbon nanotube using shell model
By :Payam SOLTANI, J SABERIAN, R BAHRAMIAN, A FARSHIDIANFAR
In this Paper, the nonlinear free and force vibration of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) with simply supported ends is
investigated based on von Karman’s geometric nonlinearity. The SWCNT described as an individual shell and the Donnell’s
equations of cylindrical shells are used to obtain the governing equations. The Galerkin's procedure is used to discretized partial

Fixation and Mechanical Properties of Implanted Cartilage Replacements - An overview of three recently published papers
Partial- and
full-thickness cartilage lesions of the knee caused by trauma, disease or joint
instability are a common disorder affecting people of all ages. Implanted
cartilage replacements (ICR) have the potential to overcome the limitations of
conventional treatment methods and are a promising approach to restore
functionality of the joint. In spite of some success in engineering
cartilaginous tissue, inferior biomechanical and biochemical properties of ICR
compared to native articular cartilage (AC) and inadequate quality of fixation
Postdoctoral position in Multiscale Computational Analysis of Composite Materials (Madrid, Spain)
IMDEA Materials Institute (Madrid,sapin) seeks a Postdoctoral Researcher (PhD degree in mechanical engineering, aerospace, or related) to work in the field of multiscale computational analysis of composite materials. Candidates with strong background knowledge in computational multiscale damage mechanics, and on the numerical simulation of advanced composites are strongly encouraged to apply. A general knowledge in materials science is highly valued.
