Post-doctorate Positions in Offshore Engineering at National University of Singapore

Submitted by Pang Sze Dai on

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.

One Ph.D. position in mechanics of materials for Fall, 2014

Submitted by Jie. Yin on

One Ph.D. position will be available in the Applied Mechanics of Materials group of Mechanical Engineering Department at

Temple University, Philadelphia, PA, USA. The position will start in the coming Fall, 2014.

The research program will focus on mechanics of soft composite materials and structures as well as

their novel applications in micro/nano-fabrication, anti-biofilm, energy absorption/harvesting, etc. In

particular, it will focus on harnessing buckling instabilities of hybrid soft and hard materials and
