Dear All,

How do find the inverse of the rectangular matrix.

The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Colorado
at Boulder invites applications for two full-time positions beginning
fall 2010. The positions are for tenure-track assistant professors with
disciplinary expertise in the areas of (1) Bioengineering (posting #808181), and (2) Solid Mechanics/Materials Physics (posting #808182);
higher rank may be considered for experienced candidates. Candidates
are expected to strongly complement and strengthen existing
departmental research in biomechanical/biomaterials engineering, energy
and environmental engineering, micro/nanosystems engineering, materials
engineering or solid/fluid mechanics. Candidates must have an earned

This workshop is being organized under the auspices of the International Federation for the Promotion of Mechanism and Machine Science (IFToMM).

Topics of interest include: Microactuators, Microsensors, Micro-opto-mechanical devices, Mechanical Tools for cell and tissue studies, Micromanipulation, Micro-assembly, Microscale flight and swimming, Surgical tools, Micro-robotics, Micro-scale power generation, and Miniature manufacturing machines.

Please consult the Call for Papers (attached) for further details.

The Department of Mechanical Engineering seeks an outstanding individual for a tenure-track faculty position in Mechanics.  The appointment is expected to be at the assistant professor level; in an exceptional case, a senior faculty appointment may be possible. Faculty duties include teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels, development of an independent, internationally-recognized research program, and supervision of student research.

The Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at Northeastern University invites applications and nominations for a tenured faculty position beginning in September 2010 at the Associate or Full Professor level. Candidates with well established, well funded and internationally recognized research programs are sought to expand the department’s research efforts. The position is in the general area of Nanotechnology, preferably with an emphasis in mechanics. Collaboration with our NSF funded Center for High-rate Nanomanufacturing as well as excellence in teaching are expected.

We present an application of fluid-structure interaction analysis to the mechanics of red blood cells. For more information see the following link:
