How to land a faculty position

Submitted by Hamid Reza Sanei on

Hey all, 

I put a package together for those who are interested in landing a faculty position. I always see candidates making the same mistake over and over. 

There are bunch of obvious stuff such as how to prepare a CV and cover letter and then some insights for the phone and campus interview. 

You can download the package here at https://jobsafterphd.com/

The first 10 people will get 50 % discount through a coupon code: " phd50phd  "

Regards

Dr. Sanei

Parameters controlling the strength of stochastic fibrous materials

Submitted by Mohammad Refat… on

Many materials of everyday use are fibrous and their strength is important in most applications. In this work we study the dependence of the strength of random fiber networks on structural parameters such as the network density, cross-link density, fiber tortuosity, and the strength of the inter-fiber cross-links. Athermal networks of cellular and fibrous type are considered. We conclude that the network strength scales linearly with the cross-link number density and with the cross-link strength for a broad range of network parameters, and for both types of networks considered.
