One Research Fellow (Post-Doctoral) Position open in Singapore
We are looking for a highly-motivated research
fellow to work in the area of applied mechanics and materials.
The project is on energy harvesting using soft active materials. This is a joint effort between the Institute of High Performance Computing (A*STAR), and the National
University of Singapore. The applicant
must hold a PhD degree, prior post-doctoral experience is not required. Relevant
experience in (1) experiments and/or (2) finite element modeling and simulation
is preferred.
PhD position in cell and tissue mechanics using bio-MEMS approaches, SUNY Buffalo
One funded PhD position will be available in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University at Buffalo, the State University of New York (SUNY). The position will be available in the Fall, 2014. The research area will focus on using bio-MEMS techniques to create novel cell culture platforms for cell mechanics and mechanobiological studies. Projects may include mechanics involved in the fibrosis diseases, cancer invasion and stem cell differentiation.
SPH inlet & outlet boundary conditions for internal flow (dynamically creating/removing particles from computational domain)
Hi All,
I am trying to model internal flows using SPH in Abaqus. The current problem I am running into are the inlet/outlet boundary conditions. I need a way to be able to monitor the inlet and outlet zones and dynamically remove/create nodes (i.e., particles). Here is the process I have in mind.
How to model discrete mass-spring system in ABAQUS?
Hi everyone,
I am currently working on a project which needs mass-spring model. Previously I use MATLAB to implement 1D and 2D system, and I want to model 3D system by ABAQUS now. I am just starting to learn ABAQUS, it seems like there is not much tutorial or example about this kind of model.
ABAQUS Analysis
How to differentiate between the analysis of a "hollow pile with closed top and an open end" with "vented top and open ended pile".
After applying compressive load at both the pile tops (closed and vented), i have obtained/observed that the vented pile is offering higher resistance to penetration as compared to closed top pile.

Abstract
NMT Biomechanics Why is it better to be seaweed better than to be phytoplankton?
This is an introductory post to a discussion on the advantages of multicellular organisms over single-celled eukaryotes from an energy harvesting viewpoint. It is intended for the New Mexico Tech biomechanics class but others can play.
As engineers we should seek for a numerical measure (or some measures) that allows us to decide how close an organism is to the optimum. Consider two cases: a seaweed in comparison to a single-cell photosynthetic eukaryote and a herbivore in comparison to a single-celled eukaryotic animal.
