Electroelasticity of polymer networks
This work introduces a new microscopically-motivated model for the electromechanical response of elastomers:
The merit of this novel model is demonstrated in the following paper
Multiscale analysis
Looking for Research/Postdoc Opportunity.
Dear Fellow Members,
I am currently pursuing my PhD research under the supervision of Prof. Ralf Müller at the Institute for Applied Mechanics, TU Kaiserslautern, Germany. I have submitted my dissertation on October 2014. And expecting to defend my PhD work on March, 2015.

Postdoctoral Fellowship at Northwestern University in Stochastic Multiscale Analysis and Design
We are seeking applicants for a Postdoctoral Fellowship in “stochastic multiscale analysis and design” in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, USA. Applicants are expected to have expertise in the following areas: solid mechanics, uncertainty quantification, finite element modeling, and engineering optimization. The candidate is expected to have a strong background in statistical analysis. Prior experience with material microstructure characterization via image processing, and model uncertainty quantification is preferred.
