One Ph.D. position in mechanics of materials for Fall, 2014

Submitted by Jie. Yin on

One Ph.D. position will be available in the Applied Mechanics of Materials group of Mechanical Engineering Department at

Temple University, Philadelphia, PA, USA. The position will start in the coming Fall, 2014.

The research program will focus on mechanics of soft composite materials and structures as well as

their novel applications in micro/nano-fabrication, anti-biofilm, energy absorption/harvesting, etc. In

particular, it will focus on harnessing buckling instabilities of hybrid soft and hard materials and
