We cordially invite you to participate in at the 3rd African Conference on Computational Mechanics - An International Conference – AfriCOMP13 (July 30 – August 2, 2013, Livingston, Zambia) by giving a talk in our minisymposium "Computational modeling of nano- and microstructured materials".
Crack initiation and growth: methods, applications, and challenges. Minisymposium for SES 2013 at Brown University.
Dear Colleagues:
Brown University will host the SES 50th Annual Technical Meeting and ASME-AMD Annual Summer Meeting (July 28-31, 2013). It is our great pleasure to welcome you to submit abstracts to the symposium
Crack initiation and growth: methods, applications, and challenges.
A Postdoc Position Available
A postdoc position is available in Dr. Qi’s group in the
Mechanical Engineering Department at University of Colorado Boulder starting
from April, 2013. The project will involve mechanics and design of polymer
composites. Candidates should have strong background in solid mechanics,
physics and constitutive modeling of polymers, and computational mechanics. Interested
candidates should send his/her CV together with a list of 2-3 references to
qih [at] colorado.edu.
