PhD and postdoc positions

Applications are invited for multiple postdoctoral positions to work with J. Hanna in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Nevada, Reno.  Those interested in Ph.D. and M.S. positions are also invited to make contact.

Dr. Igor Berinskii proposes a postdoc fellowship in his group MultiScale Mechanics of Solids on a topic connected to computational simulations of shape morphing mechanical metamaterials and self-deployable structures. The candidate is expected to:

 - have a strong experience in the mechanics of solids

 - have excellent coding skills (C++/Python/Matlab)  

 - be proficient in FEA

Advanced Manufacturing and Metamaterials Laboratory (https://www.raynexzheng.com/) directed by Dr. Xiaoyu "Rayne" Zheng at Virginia Tech seeks highly motivated and exceptional postdoc scholars in the broad areas of 1) advanced materials for additive manufacturing/3D Printing, 2) architected materials, mechanics of multi-functional materials.

Applications are invited for three PhD and two postdoc positions in the area of computational mechanics of materials at the University of Padova, Italy.

The successful candidates will work at building a multiscale model for the study of contact, friction and solid lubrication between metal surfaces, sponsored by an ERC consolidator grant.
