A*STAR Investigatorships, Singapore 2008
SERC launched the A*STAR Investigatorships last year. This prestigious award for top young research talent, tenable at their research institutes, aims to nurture young talent and build R&D capabilities in Singapore.
This year, the award is open for applications in the following areas:

The full oral program is now available via the conference website at http://www.tc4pca.elsevier.com/index.htm. Register now to participate at this well-received single session conference held in the beautiful Alpine village of Les Diablerets, Switzerland.
Multiwalled carbon nanotubes: the thicker, the softer
I need help for programming immersed boundary (solid-fluid) interaction
I am a PhD student of Computational Nanotechnology. I am working on my thesis about flow characteristics of biological nanopores. In part of my thesis I need to simulate the flow inside the nanopore with known method for solid-fluid interaction such as immersed bondary method developed by professor Peskin. Can you please help me in programming this method for my special problem. I appreciate in advance your favours.
Application of FEM in geotechnics
I am looking for specific research topics in applications of FEM in geotechnical engineering. It is just to gather some topics so as to pick the interesting one for my PHD.Anybody willing to share something on this? You can suggest any topic and of course few details will be helpful.
One PhD and one post doctoral position in “Multi-scale Modeling" at Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU)
The Department of Structural Engineering, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) announces a vacant PhD position and a vacant post doctoral position in the area of multi-scale modelling of mono-sized polymer particles. The two positions will be a part of the new NANOMAT KMB project “From Molecular Structures to Mechanical Properties: Multi-scale Modelling for Polymer Particles (MS2MP)”, funded by the Research Council of Norway.
Large deformation and instability in gels
I'm attaching slides of a talk that I gave yesterday at the Schlumberger-Doll Research Center. In preparing the talk, I made liberal use of slides prepared by Wei Hong for his own presentations. The talk is mainly based on the following papers:
Postdoctoral position at RPI in modeling respiratory motion during cancer radiation therapy
Brief description: There is an
opening for a postdoctoral research position in the Advanced Computational
Research Laboratory at RPI, Troy, NY to work on an ongoing R01 reesearch project sponsored by the National Institutes of Health on the modeling of respiratory motion from patient-specific 4D CT images. In external beam radiation treatment, a lethal radiation dose is delivered through precisely conformed
