The 7th edition of the International Conference on Fatigue of Composites is going to be held in Vicenza (Italy) from 4th to 6th of July 2018. The conference is organized by the Department of Management and Engineering at the University of Padova, under the patronage of the European Society for Composite Materials, the Committee on Composite Materials of the Japan Society of Material Science, the Italian Association for Stress Analysis and the Italian Group of Fracture.
The Institute of High Performance Computing, member of the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) in Singapore, is seeking taletend researchers to fill a position of Scientist.
The job scope is numerical modeling of microstructure formation during rapid solidification of metals. The numerical method of choice is the phase field method.
Please refer to the following requirements:

EML Vol 19 is out, with 7 papers. It is quite fascinating just to read the titles! There are papers on mech behaviors due to interactions within complex structures such as nanofibers in vesicles (cover), novel structures with hierarchically synchronized deformations, and mechanochemically augmented composites. There are studies of cool materials from twinning phosphorene to single layer borophene. And there are papers on methods (full-volume displacement mapping with dualMRI) and device (triboelectric generator). Can’t wait to read the content!

The interaction between electromagnetic fields (EM) and the human body are being exploited in clinical and biomedical applications. Electromagnetic medical devices are used for diagnosis as well therapy. This NAFEMS seminar brings together EM software communities to discuss the topic of bio electromagnetics; current trends in EM simulation, exposure to EM fields, and applications of EM field for both therapy and detection.

Dear all,
Our group at TU Delft has recently published two articles dealing with use of numerical fracture models for design of capsule carriers for their use in self healing concrete.

The Institute for General Material Properties of the Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) is inviting applications for a group leader in the area of Computational Materials Science. The Materials Modeling Group conducts research into the elementary defects of the crystalline lattice and on how their organization and interaction influence the mechanical properties and failure of metallic materials.
We have a permanent position (equiv. Associate/Full Professor) opening in the field of Computational Mechanics of Materials and Structures.
Location: Centre des Materiaux, MINES ParisTech, Paris/Evry, France. All details are in the attached file.
Applications are invited for three PhD and two postdoc positions in the area of computational mechanics of materials at the University of Padova, Italy.
The successful candidates will work at building a multiscale model for the study of contact, friction and solid lubrication between metal surfaces, sponsored by an ERC consolidator grant.
