Multiple Phd. positions are available in the area of computational solid mechanics with an emphasis on multiscale modeling of polymer nanocomposites, high strain rate characterization of novel nanocomposite materials, in Mechanical Engg. Dept. in North Carolina A & T State University. Interested candidates are encouraged to communicate via email to tsain@ncat.edu and/or mannur@ncat.edu
There are several graduate positions available in thermal fluid and control area also.
The 7th International Conference in the series will take place once again at Les Diablerets, in Switzerland on 14-18 September 2014.
It organised by the European Structural Integrity Society - Technical Committee 4 on Fracture Mechanics related to Polymers, Polymeric Composites and Adhesives. To submit your abtract, go to http://www.esistc4conference.com/submit-abstract.html
5th International Conference on Mechanics of Biomaterials and Tissues (ICMoBT 2013) - Sitges, Spain 8-12 December 2013. To submit your papers, go to www.mechanicsofbiomaterials.com
The reputed Springer publication from The Netherlands has given me the responsibility to edit a book titled “Nanomechanical Analysis of High-Performance Materials”.
i am interested to study the morphology of polymeric membranes in non linear regime. I am in search of what actually a 'non linear behavior in a material represents'. Mathematically there are certain equations governing the non linear behavior. But my concern is how material behaves in non linear regime (under moderate to high stress). And what molecular and microstructural features contributes to the non linear behavior?. Can any one post me to under stand the micro sructural behavior of polymers in non linear regime. It would be useful help to me.
Professor Luigia Binda, one of the foremost authorities in masonry research, and in particular the restoration of historic buildings, steps down from her role as European Regional Editor of the journal. Professor Andrew Boyd, from McGill University, Canada and Professor Amir Mirmiran from Florida International University, USA who served as North American Regional Editors for the past four years, are also retiring.
A postdoctoral associate position is available at the Computational Nanodynamics Group at Northwestern University. This research project focuses broadly on atomistic and multi-scale modeling and simulation of the mechanics and dynamics of organic, biological and bioinspired nanomaterials. The post-doctoral researcher will have the opportunity to investigate diverse issues related to mechanics and transport phenomena in emerging nanostructured materials.
We are inviting authors to submit 300 words abstract for oral and poster presentation at the conference. New developments and innovative applications are especially welcome in the following subject areas:
This will be the 6th International Conference in the series organised by the European Structural Integrity Society - Technical Committee 4 on Fracture Mechanics related to Polymers, Polymeric Composites and Adhesives. We are again inviting papers in the areas reflecting the current and future interests of TC4 as listed below.
Both experimental and analytical work is sought in order to give a balanced view of the subject areas:
A Ph.D. position has recently become available in my research group (www.eng.uwyo.edu/mechanical/research/frick/), to explore thermo-mechanical
behavior of shape memory polymers for biomedical applications. A
strong candidate with a M.S. or B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering,
Materials Science, or a related discipline is required. A good
academic record, a clear interest in experimental sciences, and an
enthusiasm to conduct outstanding research are the only prerequisites.
