Job Description
Postdoctoral Position (3 Yrs) in Adhesive Joints, Tribology and Nanofabrication (Mechanics of Micro and Nano Structured Interfaces)
This is a three-year postdoc position looking at the mechanical behaviour of nano and micro-structured interfaces at University of Glasgow. In the broadest sense, the project aims to look at how nano and micro structuring of interfaces can lead to improved designs for frictional interfaces, adhesively bonded interfaces and lubricated contacts.

Crack Growth Resistance in Metallic Alloys: The Role of Isotropic Versus Kinematic Hardening
We have always modelled crack propagation under monotonic/static loading in metals assuming isotropic hardening. However, we show that anisotropic/kinematic hardening effects play a significant role due to non-proportional straining with crack advance; the isotropic hardening idealization leads to steady state fracture toughness predictions that could be 50% lower. I hope that some of you find this work interesting.
