A Ph.D. position is available at Texas A&M University in the Aerospace department to work on the Coupling between a microstructure-sensitive model and a phase-field model to predict the mechanical behavior/damage of a bi-phased materials: Application to Ni-based single crystal superalloy. More information are in the attached file.
A Ph.D. position is available at Texas A&M University in the Aerospace department to work on interactions between fatigue and creep (permanent deformation due to a constant mechanical stress applied) at high temperature in a superalloy. More information are in the attached file.
The candidate should have obtained a Bachelor’s or a Master's degree with a strong background in materials science, mechanical engineering or any related field. An interest for both experimental and numerical approaches is expected from the successful candidate.
