Postdoctoral Position Opening at Stanford University

Submitted by Adrian Lew on

Profs. Adrian Lew and Wei Cai at the Mechanical Engineering Department of Stanford University are seeking a postdoctoral researcher to lead a project on 3D printing of refractory metal alloys.  The project will involve both computational modelling and experimental investigations. Candidates with background on experimental techniques will be preferred, since they will complement the current expertise within the groups, but all strong candidates are encouraged to apply.  The position is for two years, starting between October and December of 2022. To apply, please email Prof.

Journal club theme of Aug. 15, 2008: Variational formulations in fracture mechanics

Submitted by Adrian Lew on

This issue of the journal club addresses a topic deemed classical by most mechanicians: the onset and evolution of fracture in brittle solids.  In the last ten years or so a community of mathematicians have been analyzing the formulation of fracture mechanics models.  Although still at a very early stage, there is already a substantial body of work, which either sets in a very rigorous settings some known results, or give rise to other perhaps more surprising ones.
