Applied Mechanics Division – Haythornthwaite Foundation Research Initiation Grants 2022
With funding from the Haythornthwaite Foundation, the Executive Committee (EC) of the Applied Mechanics Division (AMD) of ASME is pleased to announce the establishment of the Haythornthwaite Research Initiation Grant Program, targeting university faculty engaged in research in theoretical and applied mechanics that are at the beginning of their academic careers.
Configurational Forces in Plates and Shells
Dear Colleague,
I'm pleased to announce our latest paper on configurational mechanics has just appeared in Acta Mechanica:
Nathaniel N. Goldberg and Oliver M. O’Reilly. A Material Momentum Balance Law for Shells and Plates with Application to Phase Transformations and Adhesion. Acta Mechanica, 2022.
Open Access is kindly provided by UC Berkeley Library.

Faculty position in Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Syracuse University
The Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department (MAE) at Syracuse University is seeking applications for a Tenure-Track Assistant Professor position in the field of Solid Mechanics beginning Fall 2023.
PhD Opportunity—Hygro-thermo-mechanical Analysis of Layered Composites
Overview. Two full-time PhD positions on "Hygro-thermo-mechanical Analysis of Layered Composites" are available. The successful candidate will be working within a team to develop analytical/numerical solutions for the hygrothermal response of composites or similar layered products. The main idea is to work on orthotropic layers stacked arbitrarily.
Minimum Requirements. High GPA (>85%) and a track record of high quality relevant publications (minimum one first-author journal paper).
Postdoctoral Position Opening at Stanford University
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.
iVABS
Dear All,
I am excited to share that we recently developed iVABS as an integrated VABS-based framework for design and optimization, parametric studies, uncertainty quantifications of composite rotor blades, and other beam-like structures. This tool is particularly useful for rapid design of composite slender structures with accuracy of detailed 3D FEA at the speed of simple engineering beam theories.
