A postdoctoral position in the field of Computational damage geomechanics is open at Université Côte d'Azur.
This project is the result of a collaboration between Geoazur at Université de Nice, the Centre for Material Forming (CEMEF) at Mines ParisTech and the Laboratoire Jean-Alexandre Dieudonné (LJAD) at Université de Nice.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering at Columbia has an opening for a Lecturer-in-Discipline to teach interdisciplinary classes related to mechanical engineering design, product design, and the design processes itself, with applications across all mechanical engineering disciplines including robotics, mechatronics, mechanical systems, thermal systems and energy systems.
The newly established Khalifa University of Science and Technology (http://www.kustar.ac.ae) in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (UAE) is aiming to become a world-class, research-intensive institution, seamlessly integrating research and education to produce world leaders and critical thinkers in applied science and engineering. The university endeavors to be a leader among research-intensive universities of the 21st century, while catalyzing the growth of Abu Dhabi and the UAE’s rapidly developing knowledge economy.
Dear everyone!
Hope you can read the sixth issue in 2017 (Vol. 33, Issue 6, 2017 ) and first issue in 2018 (Vol. 34, Issue 1, 2018 ) of Acta Mechanica Sinica (AMS).
Welcome to this SCI-indexed journal http://ams.cstam.org.cn for rapid publication of your exciting results.

It is common practice to obtain stress intensity factors in elastic materials by using Williams series expansions truncated at the r^(-1/2)-stress term. I ask myself, what if both evaluations of experimental and numerical data is improved by including lower order (stronger singularities) terms? The standard truncation is done in a readworthy paper
PhD position for developing an efficient computational platform for additive manufacturing by multi-scale approach and model reduction technique under the framework of finite element and level-set formulation. The additive manufacturing process that will be considered is the SLM process (Selective Laser Melting) for metals.
