A new postdoctoral fellow position will start on 1 November 2017 at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology. The position is in the area of theoretical and computational modeling of failure in soft solids. The potential candidate should have a Ph.D.
Mechanical properties of yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (YSTZ) bicrystals under compressive loading are investigated by atomistic simulations. Previous studies on deformation of single-crystal YSTZ showed that some specific orientations promote dislocation emission, tetragonal to monoclinic phase transformation, or both. In this work, nanograins with different orientations are selectively combined to generate bicrystals with various grain boundaries (GBs).

Title: Modeling the fatigue behavior of thermomechanical shape memory alloys: Application to the optimization of biocompatible actuators for cardiac implants.
Recent years have seen a lot of development in the field of self-healing materials. Our group at Delft University is working (for more than a decade) on development of self-healing concrete which uses bacterial spores embedded in the matrix to "heal" cracks. In recent years, the focus has shifted on development of numerical models as tools for development of these materials.

This project focuses on the propagation of waves in damaged solids, which involves nonlinear phenomena. The proposal aims at studying the inverse problem of parameter identification from elastodynamic data to quantify the nonlinear properties of the propagation medium. The work will address the theoretical and numerical aspects of the problem.
