PhD Robust Optimization Viscoelastic Sandwiches

Submitted by Hamdaoui on

Robust Optimization
Viscoelastic sandwich
computational mechanics
Visco-elastic structures are widely employed for vibration damping. Nowadays, optimal design of these structures has become commonplace. However, operating conditions introduce variability in their performances. Taking into account this variability in the optimization loop is necessary to obtain optimal robust solutions. Recently, within an exploratory project, supported by CNRS, the modal stability method (MSP) has been applied with success to quantify variability of damping and natural frequency of frequency dependent viscoelastic sandwich structures.

dislocation dynamics
# Finite Element modeling
Semiconductors

Prof. Wei Cai at the Mechanical Engineering Department of Stanford University is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to lead a project on the modeling of dislocations in strained semiconductor structures.  The major task of this project is the development of an interface between the Dislocation Dynamics program (ParaDiS) with a general purpose Finite Element Method (FEM) program (such as ABAQUS).  Molecular dynamics simulations may be required to provide physical input to the Dislocation Dynamics model.
