A Ph.D. position is available in the Solids Mechanics Laboratory (LMS) at Ecole Polytechnique in the Paris area in France.
The project is to investigate three-dimensional instabilities in magneto-active thin films heterogeneously patterned by design.
The proposed thesis includes both experimental (3D printing of magneto-sensitive polymers) and numerical (finite element) aspects.
Subject: Characterization of damage mechanisms in nano-enabled devices.

The Solids Mechanics Laboratory, in collaboration with the Thin Films and Interfaces Laboratory, from Ecole Polytechnique is seeking a talented candidate, with a strong background in nanophysics and nanocharacterization, for a postdoctoral position.
The objective of the proposed postdoctoral project is to understand the multiscale damage arising in nanodevices under various types of loadings, in view of proposing lifetime models of the devices.
More details can be found in the attached document.
A 1-year post-doctoral position is available at École Polytechnique to work on the experimental characterization and the multiphysics modeling of carbon nanotube based sensors.
See full details in attachment.
ENSTA ParisTech and Ecole Polytechnique are seeking a postdoctoral fellow to work on the dynamics of magnetic structures.
The objective of the project is to characterize the effects of a strong permanent magnetization on the dynamic mechanical behavior of flexible structures. (See full details in attachment)
One Ph.D. position is now available starting October 2013 on
magnetorheological elastomers in the Solid Mechanics Laboratory of
Ecole Polytechnique, France. The potential student will work on the
development of new experimental procedures and high fidelity numerical
models for the understanding and constitutive description of
microstructured magnetorheological solids. Students with strong
interest in new coupled problems and strong background in engineering,
physics or/and mechanics are encouraged to apply.
