You are cordially invited to submit an abstract to the symposium on “Emerging Methods To Understand Mechanical Behavior” at 2008 TMS annual meeting, New Orleans, LA, March 9-13, 2008.  

I would like to call your attention to a new postdoctoral opening in the Materials Science and Engineering Center at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, NM. The position, which is part of a new $1.5M/3yr program, will focus on understanding anomalous fatigue and wear properties of nanocrystalline alloys. The collaborative research will include aspects of nanocrystalline alloy synthesis, evaluation of thermomechanical stability & mechanical/tribological performance, application of advanced characterization techniques to assess nanostructure & failure mechanisms, and materials modeling. The annual salary for this appointment is expected to be above $70K plus benefits....
