Bonjour à tous,

Nous avons le plaisir de vous inviter à une école d’été en présentiel sur le thème de l’Acoustofluidique sur l’Ile de Porquerolles, du lundi 13 juin au vendredi 17 juin 2022. Cette école s’adresse à un public varié : doctorants, post-doctorants et chercheurs désirant s’initier ou se perfectionner.

L’interaction des ondes acoustiques avec les fluides est un domaine scientifique en plein essor aux applications multiples. L’effet des ultrasons sur des objets  en suspension (particules solides, cellules, bulles et mousses, gouttelettes), ainsi que celui des ondes sonores dans les systèmes microfluidiques sont autant de situations complexes qui mêlent la physique ondulatoire et la mécanique des fluides.

Les informations seront mises à jour au fil du temps sur ce site web
https://www-liphy.univ-grenoble-alpes.fr/acoustofluidique2022

Le thèmes qui seront abordés seront les suivants :
–    interactions non-linéaires ondes acoustiques / particules (pression de radiation) ou ondes acoustique / fluide (acoustic streaming), propagation en milieux complexes
–    synthèse de champs structurés : méthodes et potentialité pour la manipulation
–    acoustophorèse, manipulation, piégeage
–     effet de grande amplitude : rupture, cavitation, échauffement
–    signature acoustique produite par des reconfigurations interfaciales brutales
–    réalisations expérimentales : microfluidique et laboratoires sur puces, milieu vivants et cellules

Inscriptions au printemps 2022. Merci de diffuser l’information dès maintenant !

Nous attirons votre attention sur le Mini-Symposium Mechanics and Physics of Structures   de l’European Solids Mechanics Conference (Galway-Ireland,4-8 July 2022) qui nous semble d’intérêt pour MePhy

We point your attention to the Mini-Symposium Mechanics and Physics of Structures   at European Solids Mechanics Conference (Galway-Ireland,4-8 July 2022), which we find very relevant to the MePhy community.

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS = 19 November 2021 

MS- 3-5 – Mechanics and Physics of Structures       

The past years have seen a renewed interest from the Physics community in Solid Mechanics. Condensed-Matter Physicists, for example, are sometimes revisiting problems of Mechanics and Materials understood to be “classical” by Mechanical Engineers. Such an interest has brought a reinvigorating stimulus to the Solid Mechanics community in the area of geometrically non-linear problems of thin or slender structures, meta- and programmable materials and actuators, multi-physics interactions (surface tension, fluid-structure, magneto- or electrostatic coupling, responsive materials such as liquid-crystal elastomers), singularities and localization, deployable structures, fracture path stability. An example is “Buckling”, which was often viewed as problematic for the operation of elastic structures but is now exploited in the design of structures that deliberately change shape while retaining structural integrity. Entertaining the notion of shape-change by itself has permitted intrigue beyond the mechanical world into ever-changing biological structures. Understanding Nature’s principles of growth and form has subsequently inspired the development of synthetic “soft matter” for broader applications and applied solutions where traditional methods had faltered. There is much to be discovered or “rediscovered” in bringing together, again, the research communities from Solid Mechanics and Physics. By themselves, they have their own approaches and paradigms, but they focus on the same pursuit of compact analytical models and the deep understanding of phenomena. Moreover, they gather around common tools, from nonlinear mathematics, precise desktop experiments, to computational software including finite element analysis and computer graphics. Our mini-symposium therefore encourages our colleagues and friends to celebrate structures and their remarkable performances in a broad range of settings and applications.
