We are currently seeking candidates for a Post-doctoral Fellow position in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics at Northwestern University. The successful candidate is expected to possess a Ph.D. in engineering or science and must have experience in the area of computational mechanics, broadly involving computational inelasticity, finite elements and continuum mechanics. Knowledge of discrete mechanics is desirable but not essential.

The candidate will be working in the area of multiscale computational mechanics applied to granular matter. Current research projects are in the area of defense, energy, and sustainable infrastructure.

Interested candidates should visit the computational poromechanics website at
