Several openings are available in my group (https://mech-modsim.sites.olt.ubc.ca) at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. Positions are available immediately and for September 2023. Please see the description below. Applicants that identify themselves as minorities and underrepresented groups in academia are strongly encouraged to apply.
Dear mechanicians,
I am looking for students interested in doing a Ph.D. or M.A.Sc. (two Ph.D. students and one M.A.Sc. student). The positions are funded by NSERC and by several industrial partners. Students from everywhere can apply (there is no restriction on nationality). The positions are going to be related to:
1- Simulation of dynamic fracture of Alumina under high-strain rate.
2- Spall and dynamic fracture modeling and testing of materials.
3- Device failure modes under blast and impact conditions.
Dear mechanicians,
I am posting this on behalf of my friend and colleague, Prof. Shmuel. If interested, please contact him directly (meshmuel [at] technion.ac.il).
Best regards,
Mauricio
Description:
Dear Fellow Mechanicians,
I would like to draw your attention to multiple (tenure/tenure-track) positions at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Vancouver, Canada. In particular, three simultaneous searches in Manufacturing, Robotics, and General Mechanics are currently ongoing. For more details, please visit:

Job ID 38029 - General Mechanics
Job ID 38026 - Manufacturing
Two postdoctoral positions are available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Vancouver Campus. The positions are described below and involve the use of large-scale ab-initio simulations in combination with machine learning models to accelerate materials discovery. The positions are funded for two-years and available in the modelling and simulation group, lead by Prof. Mauricio Ponga.
Dear fellow mechanicians,
I wanted to share our recent paper in Large scale ab-initio simulations of dislocations. A link with free access is provided.

Best wishes,
A PhD position is available in the Modelling and simulation group in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Vancouver, Canada. The position is related to the computational design of lightweight alloys based on high-entropy alloys and metallic materials with nano-architected structure (see sample here). The ideal candidate should have a master degree or bachelors in the area of mechanical engineering.
Two positions for PhD or M.A.Sc in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia (Vancouver, Canada) are open for applicants. The positions are in the field of:
1- Development of materials with rich microstructures including gradient nano-grained materials in lightweight metals.
2- Development of Multiscale & Multiphysics techniques for modeling materials at the nanoscale including ab-initio techniques and molecular dynamics.
Two positions are open for Ph.D. or Masters students in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. The positions are joined with the Modeling and Simulation group and the Micro and Nano mechanics laboratory. We are looking for skilled and highly motivated individuals to pursue a Ph.D. or M.A.Sc. in the area of multiscale modeling of materials and solids mechanics. Two projects are available:
