Hi all

      What is the difference between plastic deformation and Elasto-plastic deformation? Thank you all.

Dear all:



The 2011 ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition (IMECE) will be held in November 11-17, 2011 in Denver, Colorado. As the topic co-chair, I hope to get you involved at the Congress. Abstract submission is now open and the deadline is on February 28, 2011.

We welcome abstracts corresponding to the description as follows:

There is an opening for a PhD student in computational materials science starting summer/fall 2011 in the Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems at Mississippi State University (http://www.cavs.msstate.edu/). This center works closely with the Mechanical Engineering Department at Mississippi State University (http://www.me.msstate.edu/people.htm).

The Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (HSEAS) seeks applicants for an appointment at the level of tenured professor in the field of computational mechanical and materials engineering. The ideal candidate will have high expertise in computation, and will also have a demonstrated commitment to significant and innovative applications in mechanical engineering and/or materials engineering.

Hi Guys 

This is our latest paper in press on "Carbon"

Are you a recent graduate in civil, mechanical or chemical engineering, physics
or applied mathematics, with experience in one or more of the following: solid
or soil/granular mechanics, discrete element method (DEM), bulk solids handling,
computational multiphase flow modelling?
Looking to develop a career in cutting-edge engineering with the opportunity to
live and work internationally?
The PARDEM project has brought together industrial and academic partners to
develop the DEM modelling techniques and to predict the behaviour of granular
solids such as pellets, grains, sand and biomass for industrial applications.
As part of PARDEM, the University of Edinburgh has outstanding doctoral training
opportunities in the area of granular solids. We are seeking an exceptional
