There are TEN openings for postdoctoral positions in the Center for Nano and Micro Mechanics (CNMM) at Tsinghua University. The Center is an interdisciplinary innovation center supported by Tsinghua University, with specially focused interests in nanomaterials, nanodevices, nano-enabled energy and environmental applications. More details about the faculties and research area can be found at http://cnmm.tsinghua.edu.cn.

A Center for Combustion Energy has been established at Tsinghua University in Beijing, China.

The need for such a center is motivated by the central role that combustion plays in energy sustainability and climate change,

 by the emergence of China as a major industrialized nation and her commitment to seek solutions to these global problems,

and by the potential that combustion can contribute to the advance of diverse disciplines of frontier science that involve reacting flows. 

Joint postdoctoral fellow position at Northeastern University and Qatar University is available immediately, focused on development and analysis of novel materials and structures for protection of critical structures and components under extreme loading.

Dear all,

On Monday January 30th to Wednesday February 1st, 2012, we will organise a
course on using the CONTACT software at Delft University of Technology
in the Netherlands.

The aims of the course are:

Dear sir

        I am Ravi dalmeya doing Phd from Indian Institute of Technology,Kanpur (India). I am doing work on adhesive elastic wavy  thin film. I have completed 2-D Hertzian contact between cylinder and elastic half space using Abaqus. Now i want to apply Dugdale-Barenblatt cohesive zone model outside the contact zone and i do not know  how to apply  Dugdale-Barenblatt cohesive zone model outside the contact zone.Can you give me some suggestion?



Thanking you



Ravi dalmeya

First announcement



IUTAM SYMPOSIUM  Fracture phenomena in nature and technology

Brescia, Italy, July 1-5, 2012



Web page:  http://events.unitn.it/en/iutam2012



Call for contribution



We seek advanced and original contributions in fracture research,
interpreted broadly to include new engineering and structural mechanics
treatments of damage development and crack growth, and also large-scale

There are two open junior faculty positions in Stanford’s Mechanical Engineering department.  One is in the area of biomechanical engineering (broadly defined) and the second is theoretical and computational fluid mechanics (broadly defined).
