Please note the Minisymposium on Sampling theory and meshfree methods as a part of
the International Conference on Computational and Mathematical methods in Science and Engineering
CMMSE 2010, 26-30 June 2010, Almeria, Andalucia, Spain -- http://gsii.usal.es/~CMMSE --
This mini-symposium aims to bring together such related areas of
mathematics and computational mechanics as Sampling Theory and Meshfree
Numerical Methods.
These notes belong to a course on fracture mechanics
Lecture 1 described the Begley-Landes experiment, and the blunting of a crack due to large deformation. Lecture 2 is motivated by the following considerations.
The Institute of Lightweight Design and Structural Biomechanics
(http://www.ilsb.tuwien.ac.at ) of Vienna University of Technology in Vienna, Austria, has an opening for a Postdoc in Experimental (Bio)Mechanics for a period of two years.

Hello iMechanica!
While reading a paper, I've tried to repeat a derivation of a simple tensorial expression given in the paper and my result differs from the result in the paper. Could you please look in to the PDF-File (just 1 page long!) that I have attached to my post and see if I derived everything right? That would be great!
Thanks a lot in advance!

Frederick F. Lange, Professor of Materials, of the University of California at Santa Barbara, passed away suddenly on Friday, in Tucson, after watching his daughter defend her PhD.
The research group on ‘Structural Composites’ at IMDEA Materials seeks a Research Associate (Postdoctoral Researcher) for a collaborative European Project in the area of Multiscale Modeling of Electrical and Mechanical Properties of Multifunctional Polymer Composites, The selected candidate will work under the supervision of the project leader to develop detailed multiscale modeling tools (micro and meso levels) to predict electrical conductivity and mechanical properties of CFRP composites reinforced with nanotubes/nanofibers.
