Fully funded 3year PhD position at Univ Rostock, Germany: multistable composite structures
The chair of lightweight design (Prof. Weissgraeber) at the University of Rostock, Germany, offers a fully-finded PhD-position for 3 years (extension possible).
We are seeking for an excellent candidate interested in research on a Ph.D. project in the field of applied structural mechanics. The research project will be on of shape-adaptive lightweight structures and developing new analytical approaches for multistable composite structures.
Recruitment requirements
Postdoc Opening in Architectured materials / Granular mechanics
We have a new opening for a Post-Doctoral Researcher starting immediately in the Laboratory for Advanced Materials and Bioinspiration at the University of Colorado Boulder.
Research Engineer - Opening at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School on Biomedical Device Development
Our lab is currently developing the next generation of biomedical devices for treatment of major diseases. This includes technologies such as drug delivery systems, smart pills and stents, soft actuators, and ingestible electronics for sensing and monitoring. These disruptive technologies will impact the lives of many, helping treat chronic illnesses, minimize side effects, and improve patient compliance for long and cumbersome treatment regimens.
Research Fellow position in Computational Mechanics, Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Southampton, UK.
Job Purpose: To make a leading research contribution to an industry-sponsored project on state-of-the-art finite element techniques to simulate needle penetration into skin working with the PI, A/Prof. Georges Limbert. You will join the national Centre for Advanced Tribology at Southampton (nCATS). In addition, you will work closely with the sponsor and contribute to the planning, writing and submission of reports and research publications.
