The Integrated Soft Materials Lab (SML) is accepting applications for postdoctoral appointments in the areas of soft-matter electronics and multifunctional materials. The postdoctoral researchers will lead efforts to develop composites and integrated soft material architectures for sensing and actuation in wearable, deformable, and shape-programmable systems. Applications will focus on artificial skin and muscle for autonomous soft robots, prostheses, and wearable computing.
Our Group of High Performance Materials in Enviormental & Civil Engineering Department at Michigan State University has an openings for PhD positions to work on Multiscale Modeling of Soft Materials starting sSummer or Fall 2015.
Our Group of Appleid mechanics in Enviormental & Civil Engineering Department at Michigan State University has an openings for PhD positions to work on Mechanics of Nano-composites starting Spring 2015.
One research direction is modeling of nano reinforced materials, with combined theoretical and experimental efforts. Highly Stretchable/Flexible composites combines the leight weight of classical composites and mechanical properties of a polymer based composites, and thus do have a very broad biological applications. .
The recently founded Group of Appleid mechanics in Enviormental & Civil Engineering Department at Michigan State University has a few openings for PhD positions to work on Multiscale Modeling of Soft Materials starting Fall 2014.
The School of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics, Ningbo University, is looking for cadidates for all subjects in the broad field of mechanical engineering and mechanics. In addition to traditional field of impact and shock waves, piezoelectric devices, material durability, and metal forming, the school are also initiating new directions like vechicle engineering, fluid mechanics, occean engineering, and other related subjects.
Positions in ALL ranks are available. Currently we are taking applications for 2014 school year.
There are a couple of funded PhD positions available at the University of Auckland, New Zealand.
The topics are, roughly,
1) Advanced material models and variability
2) Biomimetic sensing and adhesion.
The deadline for applications is Friday, October 29, 2010. Please send a current CV, a statement of purpose, and transcripts/grades from your undergraduate work (and master's work if you have a master's degree in a related field).
Several PhD research positions are currently open in the Computational Nanomechanics Group at the University of Pittsburgh for the following research projects:
1. Thermomechanical behavior of carbon-based nanomaterials
2. Atomistic-to-continuum themomechanical theory in solids
3. Mechanics of nanoporous and nanocrystalline metals
A postdoctoral research fellow position is currently open in the Computational Nanomechanics group at the University of Pittsburgh for the following research projects in the multidisciplinary areas of computational nanomechanics, nanotechnology, renewable energy, and nanomedicine:
