The unified mechanics theory (UMT) was used to develop a model to predict the fatigue life of pre-corroded steel samples with BCC structure. Details of the experimental validation are also provided.
with this message, I would like to advertise 2 post-doctoral research positions at the intersection of electrochemistry and mechanics of materials in my lab at Northwestern University. The two post-doctoral projects will specifically focus on the influence of electrodepositions on the structure, properties, and behavior of soils (project 1) and concrete (project 2).
A postdoctoral position on soft material ionotronics is available in the Silberstein lab (silbersteinlab.com) to start in late summer/early fall of 2020. Expertise in electrochemistry and/or continuum mechanics is desirable. The ideal candidate will also be familiar with polyelectrolytes, gels, and/or ionomers.
Owing to their enormous capacities, Li-S batteries have emerged as a prime candidate for economic and sustainable energy storage. Still, potential mechanics-based issues exist that must be addressed: lithiation of sulfur produces an enormous volume expansion (~80%). In other high capacity electrodes, large expansions generate considerable stresses that can lead to mechanical damage and capacity fading.
I'm looking for postdoc or engineering position in energy storage or power source area (development of supercapacitors, lithium-ion batteries, etc.), where I could apply my knowledge as well as many-years hands-on experience in electrochemistry, materials science and chemical engineering. d.gromadskyi@gmail.com
