Dear
professors, researchers and students

The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the National University of Singapore (NUS) is recruiting 2 post-doctorate research fellows to pursue research on ice-structure interaction in the Keppel-NUS Corporate Laboratory. As part of the S$75 million collaboration between Keppel Corporation and NUS, the team comprising of Prof. Andrew Palmer, Dr. Bai Wei, and Dr. Pang Sze Dai, seeks to develop solutions for offshore rigs to meet the challenges of harsh arctic environments in oil and gas exploration and production.

 The article entitled “Effect of geometric parameters on the stress distribution in Al 2024-T3 single-lap bolted joints” published in International Journal of Structural Integrity 

has been chosen as an Outstanding Paper Award Winner at the Literati Network Awards for Excellence 2013.

The Mach Conference showcases the state of the art of multiscale research in materials, with an emphasis on advancing the fundamental science and engineering of materials and structures in extreme environments.

Abstracts are due January 6, 2014. For more information, please go to the conference website machconference.org.

Immediate
Opening for a Post-Doctoral Researcher in Johns Hopkins University Center of
Excellence in Integrated Materials Modeling (CEIMM)

Our Mechanics of Materials Group at Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands has two openings for talented PhD students in the field of multiscale mechanics of materials. They are part of a European Union funded project on multiscale methods for advanced materials. One opening is onthe development of a fundamentally new multiscale approach towards material modelling and the other aims to integrate this approach with experimental methods.
