Two PhD studentships available - University of Southampton - EU/UK applicants only

As part of the EPSRC project entitled 'Innovative photomechanical approaches in identification of the dynamic mechanical behaviour of materials', two PhD positions are open to EU/UK applicants.

• EngSci-MATS-130: Exploration of novel high strain rate impact tests for composites based on ultra-high speed photomechanics.
• EngSci-MATS-131: Mapping the elasto-visco-plastic behaviour of welds at high strain rate using ultra-high speed imaging.

To apply, send a CV to Professor Fabrice Pierron at f.pierron@soton.ac.uk. The positions will be open until filled. A start in October 2015 is anticipated but earlier starts are possible.
