Postdoctoral Position in Computational Damage Mechanics Available at Masdar Institute in Abu Dhabi

A Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in computational damage mechanics is
available immediately at Masdar Institute of Science and Technology in Abu
Dhabi in United Arab Emirates. Masdar Institute is established in collaboration
with Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The research project focuses on
using advanced computational fracture and damage mechanics for simulating the
behavior of advanced materials under different loading and environmental
conditions. The candidate is expected to have a PhD in the field of Mechanical,
Civil, or Aerospace Engineering with solid knowledge of theoretical/computational
solid mechanics; continuum damage mechanics, fracture mechanics,
viscoelasticity/ plasticity/ viscoplasticity theories, finite element
implementation of computational models using UMAT/VUMAT in Abaqus. See attached
file for more details.
