Fracture of Rubber
A rubber band can be stretched several times its original length. This large deformation may hide its brittleness: the strain to rupture can be markedly reduced by the presence of a crack. This lecture describes fracture mechanic of highly deformable materials, such as rubbers and gels.
Postdoctoral Fellowships in elastomers and related material sciences at Harvard
Applications are invited for one or more postdoctoral positions at the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University. The projects will be related to elastomer materials with relevance to their optical properties and device applications. Prior hands‐on experience in one or more areas such as polymer materials synthesis, optical measurements, polymer processing is required. The project will have a strong experimental focus and will encompass elastomer processing, physical characterization, mechanics as well as fabrication of devices based on actuation with elastomers.

A post-doc position in the field of Composite materials (GNU, Korea)
A post-doc position is currently available at the Research centerfor Aircraft Parts Technology in Gyeongsang National University (Jinju, SouthKorea).
The research project will be based in the Research centerfor Aircraft Parts Technology in Gyeongsang National University. The researchwill be supervised by a principal investigator of the project (Prof. Jin-HweKweon).
speckle pattern interferometry/stress measurment method
I’m working on optical method for displacement measurement. and this is interesting to know more about application and development of these methods like ESPI , SHEAROGRAPHY anf HOLOGRAPHY . for example i face with a company that climb their product can give displacement and so strain field in many material and many geometry even in 3-D shapes!!
