 Funded PhD positions are available in the department of Structural Engineering at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) in Prof. Semnani’s research group, with start dates of Spring 2025 and Fall 2025. The positions are in the areas of computational mechanics, machine learning, geomechanics, material characterization and modeling, and composite materials. We are looking for highly motivated and talented individuals with bachelor’s or master’s degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering or Mechanical Engineering.

Fully funded doctoral course position is available for Computational Multi-Physics Coupled Analysis Laboratory from iART Program of Kyushu Institute of Technology, Japan. One successful candidate will carry out his research in the area of biomechanics and biomimetics using computational mechanics.

A fully supported Ph.D. position is open immediately in the Advanced Manufacturing Research Group within the Department of Aerospace Engineering at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU), starting in Spring or Fall 2025. Our interdisciplinary research focuses on advancing additive manufacturing technologies for high-performance composite materials, with applications spanning aerospace, automotive, electronics, and biomedical industries.

There is an immediate PhD position available in the Reliability and Mechanics of Failure Lab (RMFLab) at George Mason University in the Mechanical Engineering Department.

Candidates must have background in corrosion, fatigue, fracture, materials characterizations, and finite element modeling.

Interested candidates, please send letter of interest to mamirida@gmu.edu.

Position details: The Autonomy and Intelligence of Materials and Structures (AIMS) group in the Department of Mechanical Engineering (ME) at the University of Alabama has an opening for a PhD student starting from Spring 2025. The research theme for this position is Mechanics and Manufacturing of Architected Devices. Students with the following profile will be considered.

Qualifications:

The research group Mechanics of Materials and Structures at Ghent University (UGent-MMS) has 5 vacancies for PhD and postdoc research in the field of fibre-reinforced composites. The vacancies are linked to research on composite hydrogen tanks, micromechanical testing of composites and finite element modelling of textile connections. All research will be conducted with leading companies in the field.
