PhD Positions in Fluid-Structure Interaction
PhD positions are available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of New Orleans, starting in the spring 2013. Applicants with strong background in the areas of solid mechanics, composite structures, finite element analysis, and fluid-structure interaction (using Abaqus or ANSYS) are encouraged to apply. The research projects are on small-scale unmanned aerial systems. Applicants can learn more about the PhD program from the website, http://coe.uno.edu/coe_web/graduate/phd.htm.
2-YEAR POST-DOC POSITION AVAILABLE AT SSMG (University of Trento, Italy)
Please, give a look to my research activity at: http://www.ing.unitn.it/~bigoni/
If you are strongly motivated to work with a very active group (http://ssmg.unitn.it) in Solid Mechanics, we have a post-doc position for 2 years available not before October 2012.
The position is on a EU grant (http://intercer2.unitn.it/) and is addressed to constitutive/numerical/theoretical modelling of ceramics.

Multiple PhD positions in microstructure-mechanics relationships for structural materials at high temperatures
Multiple PhD positions are available for the fall 2012/winter 2013 semesters in microstructure-mechanics relationships for structural materials at high temperatures in the Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems (http://www.cavs.msstate.edu) at Mississippi State University. The project is funded through Air Force Office for Scientific Research (AFOSR) and will involve multiscale materials characterization, in situ SEM experiments, and high temperature mechanical testing for turbine blade structural materials (nickel-based superalloys).
