In preparing cases for faculty appointments, my colleagues in other fields often ask about citations of each candidate and his or her comparees. Despite obvious resistance, my colleagues give following reasons:
Everything is miscellaneous (Video)
While preparing a talk on iMechanica , I came across the following video "Information R/evolution" by Michael Wesch, an assistant professor of anthropology at Kansas State University. This thought provoking video echoes a recent comment on "The future of knowledge?"
Enjoy!
How to deal with the constitutive integration in plasticity?
Forums
Plastic theory has been developed systematically. As a beginner, however, some questions have confused me for a long time.
As is well known, the constitutive integration must be deal with in the flow theory. Instead of the explicit algorithm such as M-iteration, the implicit one - stress update algorithm - has been attractive for its simplicity, the most famous of which is rp (return mapping) for J2 flow theory.

Graduate Student or Graduate Employee?
Lately I have been thinking that "Graduate Student" is a misnomer. The correct title should be "Graduate Research Assistant" or "Graduate Engineer". After more than a year spent in industry, I think that there really is no difference in the work done. Except that the work environment is more flexible in academia.
