I have an opening for a post-doctoral position starting early next year (Jan 2009) in the broad area of multi-scale mechanics of nano-crystalline (nc) materials. The focus will be on microstructure mediated failure processes in nc materials primarily using continuum mechanics based approaches, but informed by materials science.

If you are interested, please send me (shailendra[at]nus[dot]edu[dot]sg) your CV and the names of at least two references.

Thanks,

~Shailendra

Both positions are in QLD, Australia.



1. Objectives

Development of good practice for Combined below rail and above rail decision model for reducing cost, risks and enhancing rail-wheel life based on:

Rail grinding

Wheel-rail condition monitoring.

2. The aim of the project is to collect already completed research that can be used to inform and improve existing industry practices of wheel-rail friction modification. This will include:

Research that leads to a ranking applicators in order of effectiveness

Recently I work on Finite Element Modeling of human eye .  And focus on cornea .( the outer transparent layer of human eye) . Based on Its structure which consist of collagen fibers I have to use the Anisotopic hyperelastic model . And I derived the coefficients of
strain energy function which divided into three terms of :  volumetric,isotropic and anisotropic

The Department of Mechanical Engineering seeks an outstanding individual for a full-time tenure-track position in materials science with emphasis on the fabrication of micro and nanoscale materials and devices. Especially encouraged are applicants with interest in sustainable energy. The opening is at the Assistant Professor level but candidates with strong records will be considered for appointment at a higher level.

The scientific goal of the project is to develop a multi-scale computational method that uses a single hierarchical data-structure as basis – involving also multiple fields. Starting from mesoscopic structures (particles or domains) a grid is constructed on a hierarchical, tree-based data structure. The hierarchical approach allows for micro-macro transition, coupling of different fields, and coarsening or refinement – where possible or needed, respectively.
