Post-doc position on brain modelling in Oxford

Submitted by goriely on
This is a quick advert to let you know about a post-doctoral research assistant (PDRA) with me. It is a 2-year research position with possible extension depending on funding and performance (see below for details).More positions will be available in future years.
 

Elaborating the controversy on the contribution of the surface stress in silicon nanowires

Submitted by MNasr on

A link between the local surface stress at the atomic scale to the overall behavior of the continuum system indicates a twist deformation at the free end of silicon nano-cantilever. The importance of size and crystal orientation is demonstrated (for more details of the project see:https://www.researchgate.net/publication/327768951_Surface_Stress_Effec…).

PhD position in mesoscale modelling overloads with crystal plasticity - UK

Submitted by castellgm on

 

A PhD position is available at Cranfield University (UK) to study the role of overloads on fatigue failure. The candidate will develop mesocale-sensitive crystal plasticity models validated at multiple scales. The position offers a dynamic research environment and the opportunity to work closely with researchers developing computational models and performing experiments.

 

Nanoindentation and nanoscratching at finite temperatures: Three reviews

Submitted by Shuozhi Xu on

Dear Colleague,

Dr. Saeed Zare Chavoshi and I have co-authored three review articles, concerning nanoindentation and nanoscratching at finite temperatures from the computational and experimental perspectives:
