creep

I am looking for a PhD candidate who will be sponsered by my Institute to work in the area of fracture mechanics. 

ABAQUS experience would be an advantage and concepts in fracture mechanics and finite elements will be desirable.

If you are interested to work in this area at Indian Institute of Technology Ropar in Metallurgical and Materials Engg. department, please dont hesitate to contact me at abhishek.tiwari [at] iitrpr.ac.in

Dear colleagues,

We inform you that the next indentation conference from the Groupe Indentation Multi-Echelle (GIME) will be held in Liège (Belgium) on 11-14 September 2018.  The conference gathers every two years, scientists and industrials concerned by the problems of mechanical characterization of surfaces. In 2018, this conference is organized by Belgian scientists: ULg, CRM Group, UCL et UMons. In line with the 2016 edition, we organize two half-days of training on indentation, preceding the 2-day symposium.

Dear colleagues,

I would like to inform you about a Works "Materials resistant to extreme conditions for future energy systems", 12-14 June 2017, Kyiv – Ukraine.

The Workshop is funded by the European Commission Enlargement Programme. There is no fee to attend.  Participants from the target countries* can apply for a Grant to cover their cost.  Eligible for Grants are those that work in or are citizens of a target country.

The Workshop will consist of invited keynote presentations, oral presentations by participants and a Poster session.

The attached notes are written for a course on plasticity.  When I update the posts, I will write a note on my twitter account:  https://twitter.com/zhigangsuo.  

CONCREEP-10,  the 10th Conference on Mechanics and Physics of Creep, Shrinkage and Durability of Concrete and Concrete Structures, will be organized  by the Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien) in cooperation with the Engineering Mechanics Institute of ASCE (EMI).  The conference will be held on September 21-23, 2015 at the  Vienna University of Technology in Vienna, Austria.  It will be chaired by Prof. Christian Hellmich, Prof. Johann Kollegger, and Prof. Bernhard Pichler, all of TU Wien.
