assistant professor position

The Mechanical Engineering program of the School of Dynamic Systems at the University of Cincinnati invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor position. The position is available as early as in fall 2013. Candidates for this position should hold (by the time of employment) an earned doctoral degree in mechanical engineering or a closely related engineering field. The successful candidate is expected to build a strong funded research program, publish in archival journals, advise graduate students, and teach both undergraduate and graduate courses in mechanical engineering.

Nonlinear Size-Dependent Analysis of Elastic Tiny-Bodies

Submitted by M. Shaat on
research

Many researchers have studied the effect of surface energy on the
elastic behavior of nano-structural elements based on Gurtin and Murdoch surface
model. Many of them, however, assumed that the surface energy depends only on
the 2D symmetric infinitesimal surface strains and neglects the second-order
products of surface strains/displacement gradients. Moreover, there are some
researchers assumed that the surface energy is independent on infinitesimal
rotation tensor and neglected all rotation
