Modal Analysis

Postdoc (2 years) on Machine learning techniques for interpretation of vibrational data

Submitted by wvpaepeg on

Additive manufacturing of metal alloys yields great potential for the aerospace industry (and others) as it allows the generation of geometrically complex structures with high specific strength, low density and high corrosion resistance. For example, General Electric has demonstrated the possibility of printing titanium fuel injectors for their LEAP engine, Boeing incorporated more than 300 printed parts in their 777X airplane … For such critical applications, the structural quality of printed parts is of utmost importance. Small deviations in print conditions, e.g.

Seeking a Postdoc position on vibrations

Submitted by behrang hoseini on

Hi everyone,

I have a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering and seek a postdoc position on vibrations.

My research interests mainly include:

  • Vibrations
  • Gear vibrations
  • Vibration-based fault diagnosis
  • Modal analysis and testing

I would appreciate it if anyone would inform me about an open or a potential position soon.

I can share my CV with you in case needed.

Modal analysis of historical masonry structures: Linear perturbation and software benchmarking

Submitted by MMSLab-CNR on

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0950061818322116 The mechanical behavior of masonry materials has a common feature: a nonlinear behavior with high compressive strength and very low tensile strength. As a consequence, old masonry buildings generally present cracks due to permanent loads and/or accidental events. Therefore, the characterization of the global dynamic behavior of masonry structures should take into account the presence of existing cracks.

NOSA-ITACA: a free finite element software for structural analysis

Submitted by MMSLab-CNR on

NOSA-ITACA is a software product of the Mechanics of Materials and Structures Laboratory of ISTI-CNR, distributed via the http://www.nosaitaca.it/software/ website.
The package includes SALOME v8.3.0, and is available for Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04.
NOSA-ITACA enables you to conduct both linear and nonlinear static analyses and modal analyses.
NOSA-ITACA can be used to study the static behavior of masonry buildings of historic and architectural interest and model the effectiveness of strengthening operations.

Postdoctoral vacancy (3 years) on high-frequency vibration techniques for non-destructive inspection of 3D printed metal parts

Submitted by wvpaepeg on

 

The use of 3D printed metal structures is taking a very fast ramp-up in industry. General Electric has demonstrated the possibility of printing titanium fuel injectors for their LEAP engine, EADS has printed a nacelle hinge bracket for the Airbus A320, Boeing is printing plastic inlet ducts for high-altitude aircrafts, hip implants and other prosthetics are exploiting the design freedom of additive manufacturing (AM),...
