I am writing to draw your attention to our annual solicitation for applications to Rowland Junior Fellows Program, which may be of interest to your graduate students and postdoctoral fellows.
We have currently eight Rowland Junior Fellows at the Institute. As a look at our website will tell you (http://rowland.harvard.edu), they work on a broad range of topics, from condensed matter physics to plant physiology.
New students may start from January 2008 if the graduate students have previous research experience in solid mechanics (e.g., nano/micro-mechanics, computational mechanics) or material engineering (MD simulation, mechanical behaviors). Students will have the opportunities to conduct balanced experimental and computational work on the durabilty and impact failure of marine composite materials; failure and material designs of nanocomposite materials; or rehabilitation of infrastructure materials using composites and other materials. An MS degree is required.
I normally come across many advertisements about lecturership positions in different universities all around the world. And I always wonder when is the right time for a post doc. to apply for it? As, I am never sure that my experience will be enough for the position.
What are the necessary ingredients of a post doc.'s CV, that should help him getting such position?
Dear Abaqus Users,
Help is needed on how we can get the output displacement of some
certain nodes and implement them in a formula to become forces (from
each node results); and add this forces into their corresponding nodes
in the following new step, for multiple steps.
Thank you for your helping answers of any approaches and they are
really appreciated .
Thanks
Elsevier is offering a 10% discount off the full registration fee for the 2nd International Conference on the Mechanics of Biomaterials & Tissues (www.icmobt.elsevier.com). This offer will end on 26 October 2007.
I hope you are able to come to Kaua'i and take part in this exciting and well-received conference.

The abstract submission deadline for this next conference in the triennial Fracture of Polymers, Composites & Adhesives series (www.tc4pca.elsevier.com) is 2 November 2007.
The conference will take place will take place in Les Diablerets, Switzerland, 7-11 September 2008. Les Diablerets is a beautiful alpine village set in the mountains above Lac Leman just 90 minutes from Geneva International Airport by car or train.
The cells of our bodies represent a very large class of systems whose structural components often are both comlex and soft. Most cells have a complex internal structure of biological rods,ropes and sheets.
cell mechanics is vital to tissue formation!
I need some introductory materials to be familiar with cell mechanics and soft tissues in biomechanics. I will appreciate your help and guidance!

continuity e.q.,equilibrium e.q. ,N-S , constitutive e.q. for elastic solid and compressible fluid in the space-frequency domain, as shown in the following Fig.
i don't understand how can this author deduce? why v=iwu? is this assumption? why is this necessary? thanks for your help and guidance!
In this paper we covariantly obtain the governing equations of linearized elasticity. Our motivation is to see if one can make a connection between (global) balance of energy in nonlinear elasticity and its counterpart in linear elasticity. We start by proving a Green-Naghdi-Rivilin theorem for linearized elasticity. We do this by first linearizing energy balance about a given reference motion and then by postulating its invariance under isometries of the Euclidean ambient space.
