The Computational Physics Group at the Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of Notre Dame is seeking a highly qualified candidate for the post-doctoral associate position in Computational Science and Engineering. The successful candidates will be a key part of a team that is developing and implementing adaptive, multiscale, high-performance (parallel) computational algorithms for numerical solutions of chemo-thermo-mechanical PDE’s with emphasis on complex heterogeneous materials, such as heterogeneous reactive composites, etc.
Qualifications:
· Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, Applied Mathematics, Physics or related engineering or science discipline
· Knowledge of computational nonlinear mechanics and numerical methods
· Knowledge of mechanics of materials, plasticity/damage, integration algorithms
· Knowledge of C/C++ and UNIX operating system
· Experience in parallel programming
Close Date:
Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
