Computational Study of Mg3Bi2 as Anodes for Mg-ion batteries

Submitted by Dr. Hanaor - D… on

Charging/discharging mechanism in Mg3Bi2 anodes for Mg-ion batteries; The role of the spin-orbit coupling

Magnesum ion batteries are an exciting new technology that offer prospects towards significantly higher capacities of electrochemical storage. During discharge, each magnesium 2+ ion which moves through the electrolyte to the cathode results in 2 electrons driven through an electrical circuit, allowing for potentially higher performance in secondary ion batteries. 

Postdoc/PhD positions on multiscale modeling of debris flow and sediment transport at Tsinghua University, Shenzhen, China

Submitted by lujing on

Multiple postdoc and PhD positions are open at Tsinghua University to investigate debris flow and sediment transport in fluvial and coastal environments through a multiscale approach integrating experiments, simulations, and theory. The research will take place at Tsinghua University’s Shenzhen International Graduate School (SIGS), located in Shenzhen, China, and is partly sponsored by NSFC and Tsinghua SIGS’s scientific research startup funds.

Job description

2 PhD Positions are available on modelling of additive manufacturing (L-PBF)

Submitted by yancheng.zhang on

2 funded PhD positions on modelling of additive manufacturing are available at CEMEF, MINES Paris, France.  One position focuses on the coupling work between grain growth and anisotropic mechanical behavior during process simulation, another one aims to predict the evolution of the distribution of precipitates according to the local thermal history of the material. Interested applicants should send their CV to Dr. Yancheng ZHANG: yancheng.zhang [at] minesparis.psl.eu.
