Looking for a postdoc position (Thermoelectric material)

Submitted by wanghc on

I am an engineering doctor of School of Physics in Shandong University, China, graduated in July of 2011. And I have, during the doctor's research period, actively engaged myself in the area of thermoelectric material for 5 years, focusing particularly on the oxide thermoelectric material and module. I keenly desire to obtain a post-doc. Research position in a thermoelectric research group, and further continue the study of thermoelectric.Most of my work has published in peer-viewed journals. So I can do academic writing by myself.

The indentation of pressurized elastic shells: from polymeric capsules to yeast cells - D.Vella, A.Ajdari, A.Vaziri & A.Boudaoud

Submitted by Amin Ajdari on

Pressurized elastic capsules arise at scales ranging from the 10 m diameter pressure vessels used to store propane at oil refineries to the microscopic polymeric capsules that may be used in drug delivery. Nature also makes extensive use of pressurized elastic capsules: plant cells, bacteria and fungi have stiff walls, which are subject to an internal turgor pressure. Here, we present theoretical, numerical and experimental investigations of the indentation of a linearly elastic shell subject to a constant internal pressure.
