PhD and Postdoc Positions in computational poromechanics at Columbia University

Submitted by WaiChing Sun on

I am seeking a Ph.D. student and/or postdoc associate for a number of projects related to high-strain-rate plasticity and phase-transition of porous media. 

Candidates with demonstrated experience in computational mechanics, poromechanics, and implementation of codes in C++ and python are strongly preferred. Basic understanding of tensor calculus and continuum mechanics is required for the Ph.D. position. Students with track-records of academic achievements are encouraged to apply. 

WCCM-NYC Workshop on Funding Opportunity for Computational Mechanics July 26th 2018

Submitted by WaiChing Sun on

Dear colleagues, 

We would like to invite you to attend a special workshop on funding opportunity for computational mechanics in WCCM New York on July 26th, 2018 (9:45am - 11:45am, Skybridge Lobby 16th Floor Marriot Marquis NYC). More Details can be found in the attachment. 

Best Regards,

Postdoc Position on computational poromechanics

Submitted by WaiChing Sun on

Dear colleagues, 

There is one postdoc opening in my research group. The research topic is on computational hydro-mechanics of porous media across temporal scales. 

Candidates must have established records on constitutive modeling and publication record. Programming experience is required. Experience in contact mechanics, level set and/or meshless method is a plus but not required. 

The starting date is flexible. More information can be found at
