marine structures
Research Scientist at Institute of High Performance Computing, A*STAR
The position is still open for apply.
You will perform research and development work using active/passive vibration control measures to reduce vibration of typical offshore structures. You will also develop new
numerical models, new control algorithm, and optimize the locations of actuator/sensors.
Requirements:
· A PhD in Mechanical/Civil Engineering
NMT Biomechanics Why is it better to be seaweed better than to be phytoplankton?
This is an introductory post to a discussion on the advantages of multicellular organisms over single-celled eukaryotes from an energy harvesting viewpoint. It is intended for the New Mexico Tech biomechanics class but others can play.
As engineers we should seek for a numerical measure (or some measures) that allows us to decide how close an organism is to the optimum. Consider two cases: a seaweed in comparison to a single-cell photosynthetic eukaryote and a herbivore in comparison to a single-celled eukaryotic animal.
