Postdoctoral Positions in Computational Mechanics and Multiphysics at the US Naval Research Laboratory

Submitted by Siddiq Qidwai on

The Multifunctional Materials Branch of the Materials Science & Technology Division at the US Naval Research Laboratory in Washington DC has an interest in postdoctoral associate candidates for several areas in computational mechanics and multiphysics.

Topic of interest include: a) biomechanics of injury at high-rate of deformation at multiple scales, b) multiscale dynamics of flexible armor, c) crystal plasticity and dislocation dynamics in electrically assisted deformation of metals, and d) multiphysics modeling of corrosion.

Postdoc position in Oxford on soft-tissue mechanics

Submitted by goriely on

I am advertising a 2 to 3 year post-doctoral position to work with me on aspect of soft-tissue mechanics (modelling/computation).

I am looking for somebody with strong numerical background and some experience in the modelling of soft-tissues (brain in particular)

For more info, have a look at http://www.maths.ox.ac.uk/node/23489  or contact me directly at goriely [at] maths.ox.ac.uk

Nonlinear Physical Systems: Spectral Analysis, Stability and Bifurcations

Submitted by Oleg Kirillov on

Bringing together 18 chapters written by leading experts in dynamical systems, operator theory, partial differential equations, and solid- and fluid mechanics, this book presents state-of-the-art approaches to a wide spectrum of new and challenging stability problems.

Postdoc position in dynamics of magnetic structures at ENSTA ParisTech and Ecole Polytechnique (France)

Submitted by Laurence Bodelot on

ENSTA ParisTech and Ecole Polytechnique are seeking a postdoctoral fellow to work on the dynamics of magnetic structures.

The objective of the project is to characterize the effects of a strong permanent magnetization on the dynamic mechanical behavior of flexible structures. (See full details in attachment)
