Ph.D. and postdoctoral openings in the area of non-periodic mechanical metamaterials

Submitted by jenda_z on

One fully-funded Ph.D. student position and two postdoctoral openings are available at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague.

Successful candidates will join a newly-formed interdisciplinary group of researchers with expertise in computational mechanics, composite materials, optimization, and mobile and modular robotics. Depending on your research experience and interests, you will contribute either to modeling or experimental investigation of modular pattern-forming mechanical metamaterials built on principles of non-periodic tilings.

Postdoc and Faculty positions at Hunan University China

Submitted by mcgilldeju on

We have openings for two positions of post-doc fellow in our research group in the College of Civil Engineering at the Hunan University, China. These positions will focus on the high performance composites in civil engineering, and bio-inspired composites for flexible armor. For the post-doc positions, in addition to a strong understanding of solid mechanics and materials, experience in FE modelling using LS-DYNA is highly desirable.  For the faculty positions, the candidate should have strong research background in high performance construction materials (i.e.

Graduate Student and Post-doc Opportunities at UH

Submitted by Shailendra on

We have openings for a PhD candidate and a post-doc fellow in our research group in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Houston. These positions will focus on the theoretical and computational modeling of damage in advanced materials.

For the PhD position, a strong background in solid mechanics is required; a good background in computational mechanics is highly desirable.
