Two Ph.D. positions are now available for January 2014 or September 2014 on computational materials sciene in the Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering at Unviersity of Manitoba. The potential student will work on the mechanical properties in nanoglass and crystalline/amorphous composites. Students with strong interests in atomistic simulations (MD, ab inito, monte carlo, etc.), good programming skills (C, Fortran, etc.), and experimental skills in nanomechanical test (e.g., nanoindentation) are encouraged to apply. International applicants please convert your GPA of last 60 credits (normally your MSc and part of your BSc) to a 4.5 scale according to the following guidelines:

A PhD position is available in the department of mechanical engineering and engineering science at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. The research project is on the multiscale modeling of the mechanical behavior of nanomaterials. Candidates with strong background in computational solid mechanics are highly encouraged to apply. The starting date for this position is January 2013. Interested candidates please send a detailed CV to atabarra@uncc.edu.

Description:

We seek for highly motivated postdoctoral scholars and Ph.D. candidates in the field of solid and structural mechanics to join Professor Jinkyu Yang's research group (http://www.me.sc.edu/research/ASL/) at the University of South Carolina. Both positions are available immediately. Professor Yang's research laboratory is located in the Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of South Carolina, which is ranked 31st nationally according to National Research Council and is recently emerging due to the construction of Aerospace Cluster driven by Boeing Company and GE Aviation.

One position for a Ph.D. Student in Computational Biomechanics for 3 years, fully employed;
expected from January 1, 2010 at the Institute of Biomechanics in Graz, Austria.

Dear non-EU students who want to study in the UK,

You are encouraged to look at the fellowship offers below. If you qualify for these and are interested in working in a dynamic group in computational mechanics in Glasgow, please contact me directly stephane dot bordas at gmail dot com

 Our department has a growing team of PhD students (more than 20 at the moment) working in cognate disciplines, which will give you a unique opportunity for a strong PhD in computational mechanics.

A graduate student researcher is sought to work on a theoretical and computational aspect of multiscale/ multi-physics material modeling (with an emphasis on biological materials and structures). The project’s envisioned outcome is to a better understanding of the relationship between the small scale physics and structures and the overall macroscopic properties of a material. This research has application in the design of new, smart material, or in the development of treatment for injuries and disease of biological tissues.

PhD available at the University of Glasgow entitled ‘Numerical Simulation of Fault Evolution in Oil Reservoirs’ 

EPSRC Case Award with Schlumberger - £15,500 per annum + fees.
