Are you a recent graduate in civil, mechanical or chemical engineering, physics
or applied mathematics, with experience in one or more of the following: solid
or soil/granular mechanics, discrete element method (DEM), bulk solids handling,
computational multiphase flow modelling?
Looking to develop a career in cutting-edge engineering with the opportunity to
live and work internationally?
The PARDEM project has brought together industrial and academic partners to
develop the DEM modelling techniques and to predict the behaviour of granular
solids such as pellets, grains, sand and biomass for industrial applications.
As part of PARDEM, the University of Edinburgh has outstanding doctoral training
opportunities in the area of granular solids. We are seeking an exceptional

Dear Colleagues:

We would like to invite you to submit an abstract for the 2011 ASME

IMECE in Denver, to be held November 11-17, 2011.  Our minisymposium

is on "Multiphysics Simulations for Solids", and is the

continuation of a very successful minisymposium held for the past 4 years

that have resulted in more than 50 presentations at the 2009 and 2010 IMECE conferences.  This year's focus areas

are:

1.Multiphysics modeling, simulation and experiments of electromechanical materials and systems

Dear Colleagues:

Here is an idea I submit for consideration by all iMechanicians, but esp. so by the admins and moderators. Discussion is welcome.

Idea: Why not have a Mechanics Gallery section here?

Origin: Recently, I was browsing for some OpenGL-encapsulating C++ class libraries, e.g. OpenSceneGraph, VTK, the game development libraries, etc. The Web sites of all such libraries always carry a "Gallery" page which is designed to attract the potential users. The Gallery page shows the capabilities and advantages of that library/framework.

hi,

 There is a half ph.d position (about 1000 euro per month after tax and all kinds of insurances) immediately avaialbe at the Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany. The work is on MD simulation of fluid-surface interaction.  Experience on finite element, molecular dynamics and computational fluid dynamics is highly desired. For those interested, please send your application to: shan [at] ibnm.uni-hannover.de.
