ABSTRACT DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JULY 31: Emerging Methods To Understand Mechanical Behavior at TMS Annual Meeting, March 9-13 2008
You are cordially invited to submit an abstract to the symposium on “Emerging Methods To Understand Mechanical Behavior” at 2008 TMS annual meeting, New Orleans, LA, March 9-13, 2008.
Journal Club Theme of May 2007: Experimental Mechanics of Nanobuilding Blocks
Welcome to the May 2007 issue. This issue focuses on experimental nanomechanics of nanobuilding blocks. The extremely small dimensions of nanobuilding blocks (for instance, nanoparticles, nanotubes, and nanowires) have imposed great challenges to many existing instruments, methodologies, and even theories. In this issue, we will discuss – (1) experimental techniques and (2) size-effects.
materials of engineering laboratory
In the spring semester of 2002, Dr. Woldesenbet and I gave a hand-on laboratory course: Materials of Engineering Laboratory, to the junior undergraduate students at the Louisiana State University. In this Blog, I am also adding some state-of-the-art techniques for materials laboratory.
Class schedule:
experimentally, stresses cannot be measured directly
Experimentally, loading to a mechanical system can be applied either through the displacement control or the force control.
However, the responses of the system can only be measured in displacements, and hence strains.

Colleagues and friends,
Associate or Assistant Professor -- Experimental Mechanics of Materials
The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Wyoming invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position. Applicants are sought at the Associate or Assistant Professor level with expertise in experimental mechanics and particularly in emerging areas of science and technology. Such areas include but are not limited to the study of biomaterials, tissue engineering, nanomechanics of engineering materials, as well as thin films and multilayers, fracture, fatigue and damage.
The successful applicant will be expected to establish a strong, funded research program, as well as teach at the graduate and undergraduate levels. She/He will be expected to participate in interdisciplinary research efforts both within and outside the College of Engineering. Minimum qualifications include an earned doctorate in mechanical engineering, materials science/engineering, or a closely related field.
