2.1.12: Physics of Bio-Inspired Materials (GSOFT, DBIO) [same as 4.1.30]

Postdoc opening in 3D printing of biomedical implants at Johns Hopkins University

Submitted by Sung Hoon Kang on

Immediate opening for a postdoctoral fellow to work on 3D printing of biomedical implants such as vascular conduits. The project involves design and development of processes to print biocompatible materials with shape change properties. These constructs will be characterized using conventional soft-material techniques and their interactions with cells and biological fluids will be investigated. 

PhD Positions Available in Solid Mechanics and Advanced Materials

Submitted by Lifeng Wang on

Two PhD positions are available immediately in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at State University of New York (SUNY) Stony Brook University, New York, US.

The research program is about mechanics and multifunctional applications of new advanced materials (such as polymer cellular solids, polymer composites, and metamaterials) focusing on mechanical performance, 3D printing, acoustic/elastic wave propagation, energy absorption, and impact resistance. The candidates with background in solid mechanics and finite element analysis are highly encouraged to apply.

[Call for Papers] 3D Printed Soft Materials, ASME IMECE 2016

Submitted by Sung Hoon Kang on

We would like to invite you to submit an abstract to the session on 3D Printed Soft Materials at the ASME 2016 IMECE to be held from November 11 to November 17, 2016 in Phoenix, AZ.

Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, offers unique opportunities to explore novel properties and mechanics of soft materials. This session calls papers from research efforts related to soft materials with novel properties realized or created using 3D printing techniques. Specific topics of interest include, but not limited to:

Mechanics of Additively Manufactured Biomaterials and Implants: Special issue of J Mech Behav Biomed Mater

Submitted by azadpoor on

Additive manufacturing (AM) has emerged as a powerful technique for manufacturing of various types of biomaterials and implants. Using AM, it is now possible to fabricate biomaterials with arbitrarily complex shapes at different scales. The inventory of biomaterials that can be used in this way continues to increase, extending the possible range of products and applications.
