You will perform research and development work using active/passive vibration control measures to reduce vibration of typical offshore structures. You will also develop new
numerical models, new control algorithm, and optimize the locations of actuator/sensors.
Requirements:
· A PhD in Mechanical/Civil Engineering
Hello everyone,
I've proposed a new Stack Exchange site called "Theoretical and Applied Mechanics" for people intersted in mechaics related issues. The current link is http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/67726/theoretical-and-applied-mechanics?referrer=73mdEQ3M_DdhwHImwznaBQ2
For the proposal to be accepted to go to the next stage the site will need the following:
- 60 people to follow the site

Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging
One research scholarship is immediately available to support a PhD
student to work on a project in Geotechnical Engineering area. The project is funded by the Australian
Research Council (ARC) and lasts 3 years.
The scholarship will provide a stipend of A$ 25,392 per annum (in
2014). Tuition waiver will be
nominated. Exceptional candidate is
eligible to be awarded an extra amount of allowance in appreciation of his (or
her) possible high quality research outcomes.
Recently, the classical view of DNA as an isotropic elastic rod has been questioned. Here we model DNA as an elastic rod inlaid with fibrils, based on which we have made prediction that is in consistency with experiments. Our analysis suggests that the bending of short DNAs can be facilitated if there exists a specific structural heterogeneity.
