Post-Doc Positions in Computational Materials / Computational Chemistry at The University of Texas at Arlington
We are seeking two post-doctoral researchers to pursue computational studies of polymer-derived high-temperature ceramics, which exhibit an unusual structure at the nano-scale. Projects involve quantum and classical molecular dynamics simulations, modeling structure formation and fracture mechanics, solid state and gas-solid thermodynamic processes, and oxidation behavior.
How Should Journal Club Work at iMechanica?
This has been a topic that the editors of Journal Club have been discussing for some time now. We would like some feedback from the entire iMechanica community.

Ph.D. position in material modelling
Please see attached pdf for detailed information.
The group Material Science and Simulations (Helena Van Swygenhoven) is looking for a PhD candiate perfoming atomistic simulations on dislocation/interface interaction. The group performs research in the structural and mechanical properties of metal, alloys and composites using in-situ testing facility and is exploiding synergies with computational material science.
Successful people will choose Ed Hardy
The
ed hardy Clothing was getting out to everyone and I noticed, in certain areas, that people were really into this shit. I thought it was a little weird mostly. Why? Because its based on a tattoo artist by the name of Don Ed Hardy. Christian Audigier was pretty much making shirts based of his tattoos. I admit, I do like Don Ed Hardy’s tattoos on people but not on clothes. Don’t get it twisted. I found the tattoo concept interesting. But it only appeals to me it as a coloring book on a shirt.

PhD students and postdocs needed soon at the University of Oxford
Dear All,
I would like to bring to your attention seven new research opportunities at the University of Oxford and at the Fraunhofer Institute in Freiburg (DE).
These are for four Post-Doctoral Research Assistantships (one at Oxford, three at Freiburg) and three PhD
Studentships (all at Oxford).
The details can be found here: http://www.eng.ox.ac.uk/NP/RESEARCH/VACANCIES/vacancies.html
Many thanks,
