Self-Healing Polymers

A research fellow position is available at University of Pavia in Italy starting February-May 2023. The position is part of a project in collaboration with Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Prof. Giulia Scalet (giulia.scalet@unipv.it).

The International Symposium on Composite and Multifunctional Materials will include sessions in Additive Manufacturing, Digital Image Correlation, Non-Destructive Evaluation, Damage Detection, 3D Imaging, Fracture and Fatigue, Multifunctional Materials, Hybrid Materials, Nano and Particulate Composites, and Recycled Composites, as well as Aerospace, Oil & Gas, Automotive, Bio, and Energy Applications.  An award will be given to the best paper in the symposium.

Are you interested in contributing to the development of a totally new concept of self-healing in polymer networks? The Micromechanics group at the University of Groningen (the Netherlands) is offering a post-doc position for the development of coarse-grained Molecular Dynamics and/or novel mesoscopic models of polymer networks with dormant polymerization catalysts. The modeling work will be done concurrently with experimental research in the chemistry department of the university of Eindhoven.
