Mechanics of Mushroom as a material
We recently characterized a unique material developed from root structure (Mycelium) of mushroom. Mycelium has a filamentous network structure with mechanics largely controlled by filament elasticity and branching, and network density. We report the morphological and mechanical characterization of mycelium. The monotonic mechanical behavior of the mycelium is non-linear both in tension and compression.

Simpleware at ORS 2018, Mar 10-Mar 13, New Orleans
Learn about Synopsys Simpleware software's 3D image data (MRI, CT, micro-CT...) processing and model generation capabilities for orthopaedics, including medical device design, at this year's ORS.
We'll be available at booth #1215 to discuss how to use Simpleware software to improve workflows using complex scan data.
Research in Fluid Structure Interaction: Looking for PhD position
Hello,
I have completed my M.Tech (2015-17) from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati with specialization in Computational Mechanics.
I worked on Fluid Structure Interaction during my masters and developed a new Finite Element Algorithm to couple fluid and solid domains.
I aim to focus on FSI and Parallel Computation for my further research in PhD.
I'll welcome PhD offers with similar research interests.

ABD matrix and Effective Properties of Composite Laminates
Mechanics of structure genome (MSG) is a powerful tool that helps to obtain both effective properties and ABD matrix of composite laminates. The example shown here is how to predict the effective properties and ABD matrix of composite laminates starting from microstructural details of the composite.

The stress fields in a microstructure with particle inclusion
MSG provides a versatile microstructural representations based on the heterogeneity of the microstructure. MSG also makes easy for both predictions of effective properties and local fields in any type of microstructures. Please check the link here under to see how easy to use MSG to obtain both the effective properties and the local field recovery of a microstructure with particle inclusions.
