There is a fully funded PhD opportunity in my lab http://dalubc.wordpress.com on the topic of phonon transport in nanostructured materials. Strong background in computational tools (MD, FE, and MATLAB) and elastodynamics/wave propagation is essential. Applications are sought from very strong and motivated gradaute students intending to puruse PhD studies in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, UBC, Vancouver, Canada. Interested students with excellent computational and experimental skills relevant to the above area are encouraged to send their CV, incluidng publications, and a statement of research to srikanthubc AT THE RATE OF gmail dot com (remove the obvious obfuscations for the correct email address) on or before 25th May 2016.
