Two Ph.D. positions and one postdoc position are available in Wang Research lab (https://www.wangresearchlab.com) in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Missouri, Columbia.
Ph.D. positions
The Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung (Düsseldorf, Germany) offers a position in the department Structure and Nano-/Micromechanics of Materials (Prof. G. Dehm): PhD student or postdoc position in “Atomistic Computer Simulation of Grain Boundary Structure and Mechanics”
Understanding how grain boundaries influence plasticity will lead to significant advances in material design. In the context of the department’s research, the overarching aim of this PhD project is to connect grain boundary structures in fcc metals to physical properties.
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) benefits from individualized 3D modelling and simulation. I recommend anyone wanting to learn more about work in these area check out this webinar on July 30th:

Dear Colleagues,
We wanted to alert you for the call for nominations of the awards of the Applied Mechanics Division (AMD) of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), which are due on September 15th, 2020.
There has been a lot of buzz and excitement about "big data" lately, to a point that science in the coming years would be made of and by "big data", not to mention "deep learning", another hot item. Well....I just wonder, how comes that nowadays, in those very tough corona times, haven't we founmd a vaccine, maybe a cure, or at least a sound epidemiologic study with clear outcomes using "deep learning" or "big data"? I will appreciate updates that will help me answering those simple questions.
Please see more information on this webinar on July 23rd on going from DICOM to Medical Guides and Additive Manufactured implants - a fascinating subject for anyone interested in patient-specific modelling:
