Research Associate position on Multiscale Modelling of Thermal Barrier Coatings (Cardiff University)
A full time postdoctoral research associate position is available at Cardiff University under the supervision of Professor Bhushan L. Karihaloo and Drs Kulasegaram and Zhu, funded by FP7. http://www.engin.cf.ac.uk/research/resInstitute.asp?InstNo=13
The research aims to develop novel metal-ceramic materials for aerospace and automotive applications.
Objectives:
Explicit solvers (LS-Dyna) : Are they faster and more accurate then implicit FEM (Marc) for solving large plastic deformation

Rise in bacon prices a squealing good sign for the economy
There has been a Russian wheat crisis and harvest problems in Europe. This means purchasing a pint of beer in Europe is now going to cost about $ 6.30. But what's worse is that bacon prices are going up. CNBC explains that bacon costs 20 percent more than it did last year. The prices rising is a good thing considering the U.S. economy. Of course you will find some people a little upset by the whole idea of paying more for bacon.
Interfcing Abaqus with Matlab
Hello everyone,
Can anyody tell me the detail for the interfacing of input files(.rpt) such for displacement, Moment in Abaqus to be parameterized by the optimization algorithm in Matlab. I have used the exclamatory mark for editting all files in matlab directory......

Post-Doctoral Position in Mechanics of Brain and Eye Development at Washington University in St. Louis
An opening is available immediately for a postdoctoral research associate in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis. The successful candidate will study the mechanics of early brain and eye development as part of a new NIH-funded project involving faculty in Biomedical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and the Washington University School of Medicine.
Acoustic refrigeration in Mobile phones
I think having Multi Function and multi tasking Mobile Phones r having problem of call drop as compared to other phones having less features the reason being as heat flows from High temperature(Mobile) to low temp(atmosphere) , Infrared radiation creates a barrier to the signal wave and such problem can be rectify by mobile cooling may be done Acoustically.
UMAT to VUMAT
Hi,
I am using userdefined material model UMAT for modelling of hypoplastice constitutive model in abaqus.
I need to run dynamic analysis, so how can convert UMAT to VUMAT (fortran) subroutine.
Please tell me the procedure to convert UMAT to VUMAT, it will be of great help.
Thanking You.
Post-doctoral Position in Biomechanics at University of Texas
The Research Center for Mechanics of Solids, Structures and Materials at
the University of Texas at Austin invites applications for an open
position as Post-doctoral Fellow. The specific project involves collaboration with the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston and requires the Fellow to work at both institutions. The work involves experimental characterization of tissues and surgical remodeling, and development of computational modeling of surgical reconstruction. While specific background in Biomechanics is not necessary, candidates should have a
