ACM2015 : International Conference on Advances in Applied and Computational Mechanics ,5-7 August 2015, Izmir/Turkey
We are proud to announce International Conference on Advances in Applied and Computational Mechanics, which is organized in the honor of 70th birthday of Prof.J.N.Reddy. This is a tribute for his many and lasting contribution to education and research in applied mechanics.
Conference will be held at WYNDHAM GRAND Hotel, Inciralti Izmir/Turkey during August 5-7, 2015.
Faculty Position in Dynamics at Ohio State
The Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at The Ohio State University invites applications from outstanding individuals for a tenured or tenure-track faculty position in the broad disciplinary area of dynamics.
Scholarship available!
We are happy to announce an individual scholarship opportunities for international students for studying in International Master Degree Programme Advanced Dynamics of Discrete and Continuum Systems http://imechanica.org/node/16800 of Saint Petersburg State Polytechnical University.
New educational program: MSc Advanced Dynamics of Discrete and Continuum Systems
St. Petersburg State Polytechnic University (Russia) opens a new MSc program in mechanics and mathematical modelling. The program is designed for training highly professional scientists and engineers with the theoretical background and practical experience in theoretical mechanics, computational mechanics, IT, mathematical modelling and simulations, and distributed computing.
Educational iPad app on structural mechanics
I would like to share with fellow mechanicians an educational iPad app I recently developed. The name of the app is Truss Me! and the main goal is to help students, all the way from high school to college, to build intuition on how truss structures behave. The video below highlights some features of the app:
The app utilizes state of the art simulation techniques to provide the most realistic behavior for the structures.

Faculty Position in Engineering Science & Mechanics at Virginia Tech
The Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics (ESM) at Virginia Tech seeks applicants for a tenure-track or tenured faculty position in the general area of dynamical systems with applications to mechanics. Appointment will be at the rank of assistant, associate or full professor. Exceptionally qualified candidates may also be eligible for a named professor appointment.
Molecular Dynamics from Solid Mechanics Point of View
Forums
Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica
I am searching for a tutorial or a book which looks into molecular
dynamics method from a Solid Mechanics point of view. All I can find are
the books written for biophysicists or chemistry. I can find lot of
examples on fluids, biomolecules or polymers but none of them are on
simple solids or metals.
Can anyone suggests me a book or a tutorial which can get me ready to
write a program to simulate a simple tensile test of a metal wire (FCC
Al or some simple crystal).
