Graduate Research Assistant Positions
Graduate Research Assistant Positions are available for U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents who have completed a Master of Science (M.S.) degree in Civil Engineering or a related field and wish to pursue Ph.D. degree in Civil Engineering from Fall 2015. We will also consider outstanding students who have completed their B.S. degree and want to directly pursue their Ph.D. degree starting.
For the purpose of establishing the best practice for homogenization and dehomogenization needed in composites design and manufacturing, cdmHUB launches the Micromechanics Simulation Challenge. After incoporating comments from academia, industry and commercial software providers, we have finalized the final draft for Level 1 problems, which is attached here with more details can be at https://cdmhub.org/resources/665.
