Description 

Applications are invited for multiple postdoctoral research positions in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at University of Maryland, College Park (UMD).  Successful candidates will participate in a vibrant interdisciplinary and collaborative research group and be involved in projects pursuing research in the field of novel sustainable materials with exceptional properties. Applicants in the following two areas are welcome:

Area 1: Materials processing, characterization and testing

Funded Ph.D. position in the Department of Mechanical Engineering- Engineering Mechanics at the Michigan Technological University. Starting June or September 2019. 

We are looking for a self-motivated Ph.D. student to study Machine Learning enabled computational models for applications in Biomedical Imaging and Material Modeling. 

Owing to their enormous capacities, Li-S batteries have emerged as a prime candidate for economic and sustainable energy storage. Still, potential mechanics-based issues exist that must be addressed: lithiation of sulfur produces an enormous volume expansion (~80%). In other high capacity electrodes, large expansions generate considerable stresses that can lead to mechanical damage and capacity fading.

The School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Cornell University (Ithaca campus) invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in the broad area of Civil Infrastructure Engineering. Applicants should have a deep expertise in a foundational discipline (such as engineering mechanics, applied mathematics, risk analysis, materials science, and/or computational science and engineering) and a history of research achievement supporting technology in at least one of the following areas:
