A postdoctoral research position is available in Dr. Rugonyi’s lab in the Biomedical Engineering (BME) Division of the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) in Portland, OR.  We are looking for a self-motivated researcher to work full time on projects related to blood flow dynamics and biotransport.  The selected candidate will have many opportunities to collaborate with the researchers in our team as well as across the university and to generate new approaches to study blood flow, biotransport and/or responses of the underlying tissue. 

Hallo.

For a crack in an elastic body subject to a load, the elastic energy stored in the body is a function of two independent variables: the displacement of the load, and the area of the crack. The energy release rate is defined by the partial derivative of the elastic energy of the body with respect to the area of the crack.

We are seeking outstanding candidates for a Postdoctoral Research Associate Position at the Institute of High Performance Computing, Singapore. The position requires a Ph.D degree in physics, chemistry, materials science, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering or equivalent experience.

Additional requirements include:

. Knowledge in mechanics of materials

This is a preprint that is going to appear on Applied Physics Letters. It is somewhat related to a paper by Kaushik Dayal on complex crystalline structure via phase field simulation that was posted here.

Abstract

Dear All

I am modeling a workpiece supported in fixtures and being machined. I use the FEM ( Ansys) to simulate this set up. I need to know at the stiffness of wp at the wp-fixture contact point  . Stiffness is found by applying unit force at one contact point while fixing all others.. Inverse of displaceemnt gives the stiffness in that direction. I have two questions reg this.
