Johns Hopkins University’s Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute (HEMI), in collaboration with the Materials Science in Extreme Environments (MSEE) University Research Alliance, will host a workshop and short course on impact research experiments on July 17-21, 2023. The emphasis of the event will be on impact research experiments performed using gas guns, powder guns, and electromagnetic launchers.
A Postdoctoral Research Fellow position is available immediately in the Advanced Digital & Additive Manufacturing (ADAM) Center at the Khalifa University of Science and Technology in Abu Dhabi in United Arab Emirates. Applicants should demonstrate research capabilities in investigating the acoustic absorption, vibration damping, and mechanical behavior of structural systems made of architected lightweight cellular materials and composites.
Prof. Huajian Gao becomes Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS).
Prof Gao said: “Being elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society is a huge honour for me – it’s a scientist’s dream. The society is one of the oldest scholarly societies in the world, with legendary scientists among its members like Isaac Newton.”
