Postdoctoral opportunity at Johns Hopkins University

Submitted by lgraham1 on

Profs. Michael Shields and Lori Graham-Brady at Johns Hopkins University are seeking a postdoctoral scholar for a joint collaborative program on uncertainty quantification of mechanical property predictions based on data-driven and/or machine learning models. In the short term, the focus of this project will be on developing UQ tools for Deep Neural Network models that connect image data to material properties. In the longer term this is expected to expand to a spectrum of ML and other data-driven models.

Benchmarks for computation contact Mechanics. A collection of problems.

Submitted by vacary on

Dear colleagues,

I would like to draw your attention to a recent work we have been doing to set up a library of examples of discrete one-sided contact problems with Coulomb friction. 

The collection of problems can be found here https://github.com/FrictionalContactLibrary/fclib-library  and the C API for writing and listing these files here:

Postdoc vacancy (1.5 years) on topology optimization of electrical machines

Submitted by wvpaepeg on

Over the past years, UGent-MMS has developed a stand-alone topology optimization code for additive manufacturing applications. The topology optimization software can deal with thermo-mechanical coupled problems, combined with multi-material selection. Such features are not available in any commercial topology optimization code.
The code can also deal with large industrial optimization problems, with millions degrees of freedom in three-dimensional finite element models.
