The work involves working
independently and collaboratively on: Identifying processing parameters that
will optimize the properties of the bi-metallic joint, developing a material
constitutive model for impact loading conditions, developing an experimentally
validated numerical model the can be used to predict the joint performance
under impact loading conditions, and developing design and processing
guidelines for the bimetallic joints.

The Department of
Industrial Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh anticipates an opening
for a postdoctoral associate starting September 2012. The position’s primary
area of research will focus on mechanics of the microforming processes and
characterizing the thermomechanics of deformation at small length-scales. The
initial appointment is for one year with potential to extend, subject to the
availability of funds. A strong background in solid mechanics with an expertise
in computational crystal plasticity and finite element modeling of
