In this study, for the first time, the transverse vibrational model of a viscous-fluid-conveying
single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) embedded in biological soft tissue is developed.
Nonlocal Euler–Bernoulli beam theory has been used to investigate fluid-induced vibration of

Abstract:
Numerical simulations based on finite element modelling are increasingly being
developed to accurately evaluate the tensile properties of GLARE (GLAss fibre REinforced
aluminium laminates). In this study, nonlinear tensile behaviour of GLARE Fibre Metal
The Micromechanics of Materials group at the Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials in the Netherlands is looking for a qualified PhD student to unravel irradiation-induced embrittlement in nuclear materials. A detailed description can be found in the attachment. Ideally, candidates have an MSc degree in mechanical or nuclear engineering, (applied) physics, material science or a related field, but holders of a BSc with the highest ranks may also be considered.
Apply before it's too late: June 1.
We welcome applications for a fully funded 4-year PhD position in the field of computational mechanics and materials science. Further details in the attachment.
Based on an extensive search across the periodic table utilizing first-principles density functional theory, we discover phosphorus to be an optimal surface electromigration inhibitor on the technologically important Cu(111) surface-the dominant diffusion pathway in modern nanoelectronics interconnects. Unrecognized thus far, such an inhibitor is characterized by energetically favoring (and binding strongly at) the kink sites of step edges. These properties are determined to generally reside in elements that form strong covalent bonds with substrate metal atoms.
As the validity of Instrumented Indentation continues to expand throughout all materials research, many throughout the community are still unclear as to what exactly can be achieved. Although advances in technology will continue to grow the list of capabilities of Instrumented Indentation, we will review a list of what can be expected as of now. But first lets quickly review how Instrumented Indentation works.
