We are looking for a highly motivated PhD candidate for a project related to the development of cracking computational models in high entropy alloys.

Context

In the frame of a collaborative project between three universities (Ulg, UCL and ULB), the main objective of the offered PhD position will be to develop a numerical modeling framework for cracking in high entropy alloys, known for their high toughness properties.

PhD opportunity

We are looking for a self-motivated PhD student to study Multi-Scale Material Modeling for different material systems such as Graphene and Polymeric Materials. This position is supported by the MEEM Department at MTU. This project will draw ideas from various subjects including Computational Mechanics and Materials Physics.

The candidate would have access to the advanced computing facilities, collaborations with researchers in other universities, and experimental collaborations.

2017/18 PhD program at IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca

Deadline for applications – July 18th 2017, 12 pm (midday) Italian time

PhD position – Inkjet printing and characterisation of electronic devices

The Dipartimento di Ingegneria dell'Informazione (DII) at the University of Pisa is involved in several areas of the field of Information Technology. Within the field of Nanoelectronics, the research activities of DII include the characterization and fabrication of micro and nano scale devices, to be exploited in a wide range of electronic applications (e.g., digital, Radio frequency, flexible, portable, etc.).

We are looking for a postdoctoral research fellow who has experience with developing and implementing computational algorithms for simulation and optimization in structural mechanics.
He or she will be involved in an interdisciplinary project for the development of a computational framework for the design of functional, smart, performance textiles. The objective is to develop and implement novel computational algorithms for a multi-scale and multi-physics simulation of functional textiles and fabrics, which will be at the core of a multifunctional design optimization framework. The position requires a deep understanding of structural mechanics concepts, as well as experience in algorithm development for computational simulation and optimization.
