A Report of the United States National Committee on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (USNC/TAM), June 2007  

Recentely we did a MD simulation work on the nano-void growth in Copper, welcome to my blog for any discussion..

Why The Impact Factors of Journals in the field of mechanics is Too Low in comparison with Chemistry?

Please see attachment for details of Computational Mechanics researcher openings at Industrial Research (www.irl.cri.nz), a Crown Research Institute in beautiful New Zealand.

The role involves the application of advanced modeling and simulation methods to research on solids and structures, with an emphasis on complex systems such as composites and meta-materials, or solids with multiple defects and discontinuities.

The position is research oriented but also provides opportunities to consult with industry on commercial projects.

Candidates with expertise in theory and computation of elastic wave propagation, the mechanical behavior of composites, structural dynamics, or acoustics are encouraged to apply.

Hello,

 I need some detailed informations about topics below:

 Single material ALE

 -Advection schemes

 -Mesh smoothing algorithms

 Multi-material ALE

 -Volume fraction weighted stress

 -Interface reconstruction

 -Moving mesh techniques

 FSI

 -Constraint based method

 -Penalty based method

 -Leakage

Can anybody help me?

Thanks alot

From Prof. Jaydev P. Desai at University of Maryland:

Abstract

At iMechanica, almost none talks about topics from structural dynamics and design, theory of machines, automotive mechanics, space mechanics, etc.

Let me help correct this situation by raising two questions below. Well-thought answers from any individual are welcome.

First, some background for the questions.

The Computational Science and Engineering Program of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is seeking highly qualified candidates for two research programmer positions. The positions are in the general area of Computational Solid Mechanics. Successful candidates will develop and implement parallel computational tools. Candidates should be able to interact with faculty and students from a wide variety of UI engineering and science departments, and be prepared to work closely with U.S. government and industry researchers.
