A preprint is also attached below.
Abstract
hi
i am mani. i am doing my research work in fracture mechanics area. i am struggling with modelling of crack and crack propogation in pipes. if any one know about this please contact this e mail
In a previous post, Learning to be a PhD advisor, I wrote about learning to do my job from students. Over the years, I have also learned from writings of other scientists on doing research, its dynamics: competition, despair, and exhilaration... Here is a small sample that occurs to me this morning.
POSITION:
The Department of Engineering Mechanics, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, invites applications for a tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor level for candidates with research experience or strong interest in cell/tissue biomechanics (mammalian or plant), nanodevices, bioMEMS/NEMS, nanomechanics/materials/manufacturing/fluidics, biomaterials, and bionanomechanics. Exceptional candidates could be considered for a higher rank.
QUALIFICATIONS:
See attachment for ES 240 lecture notes on viscoelasticity.
The American Academy of Mechanics is pleased to announce that
Jacob Fish, the Rosalind and John J. Redfern Chaired Professor of Engineering at
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and Martin Ostoja-Starzewski, Professor of
Mechanical Science & Engineering at University of Illinois have both been
elected as Fellows of the Academy. They will be presented with certificates
honoring their new status at the first AAM Summer Conference to be held from
