The Irish Research Council (http://www.ircset.ie/tabid/64/default.aspx) has a funding scheme for postdoctoral researchers. I am seeking someone to submit an application to IRCSET to obtain funding to work within my group, in Modelling of CNT-based nanocomposites. The chances of success are high for candidates with a good research record. The deadline for applications is December 8th.
What a methodology and a software designed for large-scale engineering problems have to do with carbon nanotubes? See J. Nanotechnol. Eng. Med. 1, 041009 (2010).
I would like to persue my PhD specializing in carbon nanotubes appliance with in biomaterials or materials. I have a master degree from KTH (Stockholm) in biomedical materials, started my PhD in Karolinska institute (stockholm) for drug delivery vehicles (Dec 2009- march 2010). Mechanical engineering bachelor from the American university in Cairo; majored in material process and manufacturing & industrial science.
Is there any relation between the carbon nanotube chirality (m,n) or diameter and the nonlocal elasticity parameter (i.e., Scale coefficient e0a) where a = C-C bond length???

I would like to invite everyone attending the 2008 ASME IMECE next week in Boston to attend a keynote lecture given by Prof. Ted Belytschko of Northwestern University. The lecture will occur at 1:45 PM on Tuesday, November 4, and will be entitled "Multiscale Computations of Fracture - When Does Flaw Tolerance Occur?"
Further information on Prof. Belytschko's talk can be found here:
