Overview
This one-day intensive training course intends to give new and existing users sufficient knowledge of the basic functionality of Simpleware software. It will allow you to develop workflows based your areas of research and future projects.
IMDEA Materials is looking for a Research Associate to work in the research project VIRMETAL (virtual design, virtual processing and virtual testing of metallic materials) funded by an Advanced Grant of the European Research Council.
Research activities will be focused in the development of multiscale modeling strategies to simulate the microstructural development during solidification of metallic alloys.
There are multiple Postdoc positions available at Impact Dynamics of Composites Research Group, School of Aeronautics, Northwestern Polytechnical University, which is located in Xi'an, China.
Candidates with research experience on mechanics of composites, impact dynamics and computational mechanics are encouraged to apply.
Salary is around 150-220K RMB depending on the qualification of the candidate. The PI offers additional bonus.
Excellent candidates can be considered for faculty positions (assistant professor or un-tenured associate professor).
Lithium ion batteries are prone to degradation by a range of mechanisms including dendritic formation and swell-induced fatigue and micro-cracking. The topology of the battery plays a role over a number of length scales, from macro scale geometry of battery to the microstructural scale of the mixing of the negative electrode in the electrolyte. Topology has a major effect both on performance and on the failure mechanisms.
A funded PhD position is available at the department of mechanical engineering in Binghamton University starting from Jan. 1st or Sep. 1st, 2018. Current topics of interest include: 1) mechanics of additive manufactured materials for biomedical usage; 2) optimal design/fabrication of 3D printed composite structures. The lab is equipped with the state-of-the-art 3D printers like EOS M290, Objet PolyJet, Stratasys FDM, MarkForged, etc. and new machines are upon ordering.
We are looking for a motivated PhD student in the area of structural optimization and additive manufacturing. Applicants with background in the area of solid mechanics/ computational mechanics/ structural optimization/ additive manufacturing will be preferred.
Please send your application (including CV and representative publications) to ali.tamijani [at] erau.edu
