Visiting Research Professor

Submitted by Kmomeni on

The Manufacturing Laboratory in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Alabama is looking for a highly driven Visiting Research Professor to join the lab. Our group focuses on developing advanced surface engineering techniques, particularly laser-based methods, and conducting experiments to deepen our understanding of the microstructure-property-process relationship.

 

Controllable Deformations in Compressible Isotropic Implicit Elasticity

Submitted by arash_yavari on

For a given material, \emph{controllable deformations} are those deformations that can be maintained in the absence of body forces and by applying only boundary tractions. For a given class of materials, \emph{universal deformations} are those deformations that are controllable for any material within the class.

Phase-field simulations opening new horizons in corrosion research

Submitted by Emilio Martíne… on

I find quite remarkable how the combination of electro-chemo-mechanics modelling and phase field approaches has enable to develop mechanistic models for the longstanding problem of corrosion. The following paper summarises recent developments in this emerging field: https://doi.org/10.1557/s43577-024-00715-8

5 Zoom Meetings for those interested to join FABER Action

Submitted by pragtic on

FABER networking project is funded for next four years by the COST Association. Its goal is to solve the current deadlock in validating the metal fatigue life evaluation methods and solvers by establishing benchmark sets of curated experimental fatigue data, with the focus set on the high-cycle fatigue category above all.
