Submitted by cdeng on

About Us: The University of Manitoba (U of M or UM) is a public research university in Manitoba, Canada. The university maintains a reputation as a top research-intensive post-secondary educational institution and conducts more research annually than any other university in the region. The teaching and research activities at the Department of Mechanical Engineering cover multiple mechanical engineering fields including solid mechanics, materials sciences, fluid mechanics, manufacturing and e.g.

Postdoc position in atomistic simulations at the University of Manitoba, Canada

Submitted by cdeng on

We currently have one opening for postdoc position at the Unviersity of Manitoba, Canada in the area of atomistic simulations of the electronic structure and physical properties of metallic systems. The position will investigate the correlation between the electronic structures and the physical properties (e.g., thermodynamics, corrosion/wear, and plasticity, etc.) of metals by using molecular dynamics and density functional theory simulations.

One postdoc position in Dislocation Dynamics available immediately at the University of Manitoba

Submitted by cdeng on

We currently have opening for one postdoc associate available immediately at the Univesrity of Manitoba (http://home.cc.umanitoba.ca/~dengc/index.html). He/she will be expected to model the dislocation networks and their influence on the mechanical properties of high entropy alloys. The ideal candidate would have a Ph.D. degree in Materials Science or Mechanical Engineering with experiences in Dislocation Dynamics.

MSc position in computational materials science at the University of Manitoba

Submitted by cdeng on

Two Masters' positions are now available for the winter semester (starting in January), 2013 on computational materials sciene in the Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering at the Unviersity of Manitoba. The potential student(s) will work on the thermostability and mechanical properties in nanocrystalline materials and crystalline/amorphous composites. Students with strong interests in atomistic simulations (MD, ab inito, monte carlo, etc.) and good programming skills (C, Fortran, etc.) are encouraged to apply. Intrested students please send a CV and inquires to Prof.

Opening for Master/Ph.D. in computational materials science

Submitted by cdeng on

Two openings for Master/Ph.D. studentship are now repost for January, 2013 in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Manitoba in the field of computational materials science. Students with a strong background/intrest in materials simulation (atomistic, e.g., Ab initio, MD or Monte Carlo, or mesoscale phase field simulations) are encouraged to apply.
