Postdoc position in Mechanics of Materials at the University of Oxford

Submitted by Laurence Brassart on

Dear Colleagues,

I am looking for a talented and motivated postdoctoral researcher to join my group at the University of Oxford in September 2021 (2-year contract). The project focuses on the constitutive modelling of biodegradable polymers (large deformations coupled to mass transport and chemical reactions). Candidates should have a strong background in continuum mechanics, constitutive modelling (hyperelasticity, viscoplasticity) and finite element methods. 

A complete description of the position is attached.

Additive Manufacturing and the COVID-19 challenges: An in-depth study

Submitted by mokarram76 on

The COVID-19 pandemic created huge demand of relevant medical  and personal protective equipment (PPE) and put unprecedented pressure on the healthcare system within a very short span of time. Moreover, the supply chains system faced extreme disruptions as a result of the frequent and severe lockdowns across the globe. In this situation, additive manufacturing (AM) becomes a supplementary  manufacturing process to meet the explosive demands and ease the health disaster worldwide.
