Two Ph.D. positions are available in Prof. Dongare's research group in the area of atomic-scale and mesoscale modeling of the deformation behavior of materials. The positions can be in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering or the School of Mechanical, Aerospace, and Manufacturing Engineering at the University of Connecticut.
Interested students should email their CV to Prof. Dongare at dongare(at)uconn.edu.
The Computational Materials and Mechanics Group (CMMG) at the University of Connecticut has an opening for a postdoctoral researcher in the modeling of mechanical behavior polymer matrix composites across multiple scales starting immediately.
The postdoctoral researcher will use classical molecular dynamics simulations and machine learning algorithms to investigate the links between atomic-scale microstructure and the properties/behavior of polymer matrix composites under high-rate deformation.

Dear Colleagues,
I am writing this email in regards to a special issue being organized by me focused on "Mechanical Behavior of Interfaces in Materials" for the Journal of Materials Science along with Dr. Rajendran, Dr. Namburu, and Dr. Dubey.. . This special issue aims to address the links between the various characteristics of the interfaces (structural, chemical) and the response under various mechanical loading environments. A description of the scope is below:
Background/Scope:
The Computational Materials & Mechanics Group (CMMG) at the University of Connecticut has an immediate opening for a postdoctoral researcher in the area of modeling of impact behavior of materials at the mesoscales. The work is based on the newly developed quasi-coarse-grained dynamics method that extends the time and length scale capabilities of molecular dynamics simulations to the mesoscales. The postdoctoral researcher will work on the extension of this method to model shock/impact response of complex materials systems.
The Computational Materials & Mechanics Group (CMMG) at the University of Connecticut has an immediate opening for a graduate student and/or a postdoctoral researcher in the area of modeling of impact behavior of materials at the mesoscale. The position is open for US persons only (US citizenship or Permanent Residency required).
The Computational Materials & Mechanics Group (CMMG) at the University of Connecticut has an opening for a postdoctoral researcher in the area of modeling of mechanical behavior of materials at the mesoscale. The postdoctoral researcher will work on the development and application of mesoscale models to investigate the dynamic response of metallic materials (high strain rate, shock) and will involve generation of data using atomistic simulations (molecular dynamics) for validation.
Required Qualifications:
Two Graduate Research Assistantship
positions are currently available in the Multiscale Materials Modeling
Group to support graduate study leading to a PhD in Materials Science
and Engineering at the University of Connecticut starting Spring/Fall 2013.
