Coordinator of the HyFiSyn project
Looking for a motivated PhD student (Fall 2018 or Spring 2019) to work on Multi-Material 3D Printing: carbon fiber composite, nanocomposite, and conductive ink. The dissertation investigates both materials and mechanics aspects of 3D printed materials. If interested send your CV to mtehrani [at] unm.edu
The Mechanics & Materials Group within ETH Zurich's Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering has several openings for PhD students as well as a postdoctoral scholar. All positions are within the area of multiscale mechanics of solids with a primary focus on theory and simulations but also an experimental PhD thesis. Please see the attached description of the positions as well as requirements for potential candidates and contact information. The positions are open immediately and applications are welcome.
SUSTech (https://www.sustech.edu.cn/en/) is a newly found research university in Shenzhen, China (Shenzhen can be considered as Silicon Valley in China.). Please check out the attached pdf file for the introduction of SUSTech and the PhD scholarship.
These fully supported PhD positions are available for 2020 Fall semester, it is still in time to apply. The PhD scholarship is RMB126,700 (Approx. USD18,098)/year, plus a possible performance-based award of RMB20,000 (Approx. USD2,857)/year.
A PhD position is available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Science at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. The research project is in the multiscale modeling of damage and fracture. Candidates should have a strong background and interests in continuum mechanics and finite elements modeling. Programming experience in Fortran or C++ is a big plus. The starting date for this position is August 2018.
A PhD position is open for summer or fall 2018 in Advanced Hierarchical Materials by Design Lab at Louisiana Tech University on multiscale modeling of hierarchical materials with an emphasis on printed materials. The candidates must have earned a B.Sc. (M.Sc. is preferred) degree in Mechanical Engineering or closely related fields and have a solid background in theoretical and computational mechanics, specifically continuum mechanics and finite element modeling, and need to have the basic knowledge of writing computer code (preferably using C/C++).

Dear colleagues,
a new PhD position has become available at the Mechanics of Materials group, Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands (http://mate.tue.nl/mate/)
Micro-mechanics of ultra-thin free-standing multi-layer membranes in MEMS ultra-sound transducers.
There is one open Ph.D. student position fully funded in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Villanova University. The position starts Fall 2018. The successful applicant will work with Dr. David Cereceda in the Multiscale Modeling and Machine Learning (M3L) Laboratory on interdisciplinary research topics that involve Computational Mechanics, Multiscale Modeling of Materials and Machine Learning.
Two PhD students will be engaged in a research project of National Science Centre (NCN) carried out in the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research PAS, Poland on 'Intelligent design of 2D nanostructures based on molybdenum'. The materials with a 2D atomic structure (flat, one layer) have drawn attention of researchers for years. The practical applications of graphene sheets, nanotubes can be observed in many areas from electronic industry up to civil engineering (e.g. concrete with nanotubes fillers).
