We are hiring PhD students !!
Daedalus, our new research group at Georgia Institute of Technology, has an opening for two PhD students with background in solid/experimental mechanics to work towards developing high throughput fracture testing methods as well as mechanics of green structures. Starting date: Spring 2024. Applications of both experimental and computational backgrounds will be evaluated.
Dear Colleagues,
I invite you to read our recent publication in the Journal of Physics: Materials: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/2515-7639/ace381
Excellent paper looking at temperature profiles during LPBF AM (using miniSLM):
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772369023000312
Of course, questions remain regarding the validity of temperature estimation method, max temp, max cooling rates etc. -
but it is an important step in the right direction!
We are looking for a PhD student for a research project on microscale mechanical characterization of fiber reinforced polymer composites using in-situ microscopic techniques. Much more fundamental insights and measurements at the micro-scale are necessary to enable fully predictive multi-scale modelling and faster adaptation of composites. Therefore, we have developed advanced micromechanical test methods for fibre reinforced polymer composites based on in-situ optical and electron microscopy during loading.

Hello All,
Gianmarco Manzini (LANL) and I are teaching a short course entitled: "Virtual Element Method in Solid and Fluid Mechanics" at USNCCM17 in Albuquerque, which will be held on Sunday, July 23rd, 2023. If you plan to be at the conference in-person, then do consider attending the short course. A summary of the course follows:
Extreme Mechanics Letters (EML) is very pleased to announce the appointments of the following individuals as Special EML Editors:
Zheng Jia, Zhejiang University (zheng.jia [at] zju.edu.cn): Special EML Editor for EML Webinars – Young Researchers Forum
Mingchao Liu, University of Birmingham (m.liu.2 [at] bham.ac.uk): Special EML Editor for Social Media Engagement
About this position: The Computational Soft Matter Laboratory (https://farokhirad.com), within the Department of Mechanical Engineering (https://mie.njit.edu/) at the New Jersey Institute of technology (NJIT), is currently offering a Ph.D. position available for Spring/Fall 2024. The successful candidate will carry out computational research focusing on the interaction of flexible nanomaterials with biological cell membranes.
Here is an open (fully funded) PhD position starting next fall at INSA de Lyon. With Paul Sotta and Renaud Rinaldi, we are looking for candidates eager to understand and unveil the physical origin of strain-hardening mechanism in glassy polymers.
=> so if you want to know more about the subject or are interested by the topic, don't hesitate to apply! ;-)
