An engineer position is available for PhD graduates from the areas of solid mechanics at the Houston area. Abilities of design, experimentation, and good communication skill are required. Please contact zyong1510 [at] yahoo.com (zyong1510[at]yahoo[dot]com) if interested.

We have an opening for a post doctoral associate to work on biomimetic fibrillar interfaces.  We are seeking a person with skills and interests in mechanical testing and microfabrication, and background in contact and fracture mechanics.  The work will be in the group of Anand Jagota at Lehigh University in collaboration with the group of Herbert Hui at Cornell University.   Please contact either Anand Jagota (anj6 [at] lehigh.edu) or Herbert Hui (ch45

An intensive metal plasticity/viscoplasticity literature review is needed, with drawbacks and capabilities of different models. Any found previous work?

I'm working on modeling of mechanical properties of polymer based nanocomposites with clay.I have prepared a code for distributing plat like particles in polimar matrix (preparing RVE) with ABAQUS. I saw DIGIMAT software by www.e-xstream.com Company in internet some times ago. Now I want to test accuracy and application of this software one my project. I want to know if anyone in this club has had worked with this software and so if any one can provide me with a link of academic version of this software for a while.

There is a potential opening for a graduate student research assistantship in Department of Mechanical Engineering, at The University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. Interested students with strong academic background with interest in theory and experiments in the areas of dynamics and vibrations, applied (solid) mechanics are encouraged to apply. Initial queries to be addressed to Srikanth (spa21 [at] bath.ac.uk (spa21[at]bath[dot]ac[dot]uk)).
