The applied mechanics group through its research lines in Seismic Engineering and Computational Mechanics is offering three graduate student positions at the MsC and PhD levels to conduct research in projects related to:

Dear Colleagues:



We would like to invite you to present your work at "Symposium on Mechanics of Soft Materials" in ASME 2014 International Mechanical Engineering Congress & Exposition ASME Congress and Exposition, Montreal's downtown convention center, 14-20 November 2014.



Symposium Description

A multiscale modeling scheme based on peridynamic theory

Openings at various levels are immediately available in Max-Planck Institute for Iron Research, for projects on experimental micro-mechanics and/or alloy design. The positions are in the group of Cem Tasan (Adaptive Structural Materials), in the Microstructure Physics and Alloy Design department of prof. Dierk Raabe.

For more details on the openings and the group, please visit http://asm.mpie.de.

For more information regarding the institute, please visit http://www.mpie.de 

I think you all will be happy to hear a few amazing accomplishments that
occurred in 2013 in the SIMULIA Learning Community. We are so pleased
to announce that the SLC contains well over 12,000 members and is
growing daily - THANK YOU!!! These members include SIMULIA users,
advocates, academics, commercial customers, researchers and more!



Additionally, we received our first few CUSTOMER blog posts created and
published to the community and we could not be more excited about it.

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in the area of large-scale inversion and imaging using acoustic waves and high-performance computing.

At the interface between the fields of solid mechanics, acoustics and numerical modeling, the present job offer focuses on inverse problems with the aim of extending applications of the spectral-element method and petascale high-performance computing to (1) ocean acoustics and for (2) non-destructive material testing.  

Hi everyone, 

I cannot get the actual significance regarding the usage of Prony  series and Shift factors in the material modelling of the viscoelastic material. 

Please can anyone post some insights into this. Would be helpful. 

Dear All

please find a link to a story describing the results of a final project that I assigned for my graduate "Experimental Structural Dynamics" class. This is timely, on this Superbowl Sunday and the broad coverage of safety issues related to Football and head injuries.
