Postdoctoral position in Multiscale Modeling of Composites

There is an opening for a postdoctoral research position in the Advanced Computational Research Laboratory at RPI, Troy NY to work on a project sponsored by the Army Research Office involving multiscale modeling of 3D woven fiber composites under high strain rate loading conditions. Encouraged to apply are creative, self-motivated candidates with a sound background in computational mechanics. Qualifications: 1. PhD in Computational/Applied Mechanics or related topic. 2. Sound background in nonlinear solid mechanics. 3. Sound background in FEM technology. Prior experience in multiscale modeling is a plus. 4. Experience in large scale computational mechanics code development in C++ necessary. 5. Experience in code development on parallel machines is highly desirable. Contact: Interested candidates are encouraged to send a cover letter, CV, three representative publications and names and contact information for three references to: Professor Suvranu De des@rpi.edu
