RSE Position, Extreme-scale simulation of composite inelastic media, CU Boulder
CU Boulder's PSAAP Multidisciplinary Simulation Center has an opening for a Research Software Engineer to co-lead development of robust, extensible open source software for extreme-scale simulation of large-deformation composite poro-elasto-visco-plastic media across a broad range of regimes with experimental validation and coordination with micromorphic multiscale models.
Four (4) PhD positions in AI @ TU Delft
Hiring four (4) new PhD students to join us at MACHINA: the new TUDelft AI lab that I am leading.
Each position is unique and has different co-advisors. Pick wisely ;)
Hard-magnetic Elastica
Stroke is #1 cause of long-term disability and #4 cause of death in the US. Most of the patients are not treated in time due to unavailability of professional neurosurgeons on site. We have developed a ferromagnetic soft continuum robot for tele-operated and autonomous navigation and treatment of strokes. The foundation is the hard-magnetic elastica theory which offers a fast and accurate prediction of the large deformation of the ferromagnetic soft continuum robot.
Revisiting Nucleation in the Phase-Field Approach to Brittle Fracture
Twenty years in since their introduction, it is now plain that the regularized formulations dubbed as phase-field of the variational theory of brittle fracture of Francfort and Marigo (1998) provide a powerful macroscopic theory to describe and predict the propagation of cracks in linear elastic brittle materials under arbitrary quasistatic loading conditions. Over the past ten years, the ability of the phase-field approach to also possibly describe and predict crack nucleation has been under intense investigation.

Frontal vs. bulk polymerization of fiber-reinforced polymer-matrix composites
Dear colleagues,
This paper on comparison between frontal and bulk polymerization of polymer matrix compositres using a non-dimensional solver is published in Composite Science and Technology. If you would like to take a look, full paper is avaiable at the publisher and Researchgate.
