THE JOB POSITION HAS BEEN FILLED. PLEASE DO NOT SEND APPLICATION.

Cenaero (http://www.cenaero.be/ ) and ULB-BATir (Université Libre de Bruxelles, Belgium, http://www.ulb.ac.be/smc/) jointly propose a PhD position entitled: "Reduced order modeling and surrogate-based optimization for turbomachinery blade design" (4-year contract).

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 research position is now opening in the field of Computational Mechanics of granular materials, in Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Germany. This position should start between May and September 2010, and is a full-time fixed-term PostDoc position for 2 years (TVL E13).

The Department of Mechanical Science and Engineering at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign is actively seeking candidates for faculty positions in all areas of mechanical science and engineering.  Please see the official announcement below.

Faculty Positions in Mechanical Science and Engineering

One position for a Ph.D. Student in Experimental Biomechanics for 3 years, fully employed;

expected from January 1, 2010 at the Institute of Biomechanics in Graz, Austria.

See the attachment for more details.

Fully funded PhD scholarschip for 3 years is available at the Institute of Geotechnical Engineering, Universität für Bodenkultur, Vienna, Austria. The research topic is the behaviour of granular materials. We expect a candidate with solid background in continuum mechanics and constitutive modelling. Some knowledge of DEM (discrete element method) will be a benefit. This project is financed by the European Commission within its Marie Curie Programme. There are some ten international partners in this project. During the project you will visit our partners in UK, Germany, Holland and France.

A fully funded PhD scholarschip for 3 years is available at the Institute of Geotechnical Engineering, Universität für Bodenkultur, Vienna, Austria. The research topic is the stability of earth slopes of unsaturated soil. We expect a candidate with solid background in continuum mechanics. Some knowledge in constitutive modelling of soil and numerical analysis (finite element and finite difference) will be a benefit. This is a joint project with Stanford University, USA. The candidate will visit and stay in Stanford for some time. Your thesis will be co-supervised by Prof.
