The School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Cornell University (Ithaca campus) invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in the broad area of dynamics related to the mechanics of structures and materials. Our definition of structures is broad and includes buildings, bridges, dikes, wind turbines, and solar devices/solar panels.
We are interested in applicants whose research is related to any of the following or related areas:
• Material and/or structural response to dynamic loading arising from wind, waves, blast, seismic waves
Ph.D/Postdoc positions will be available at the Programmable Materials and Structures lab (www.promastlab.com) of the University of Pavia in Italy. Candidates with background in mechanics, materials, finite element analysis, topology optimization, 4D printing are all welcome to apply.
Prospective candidates are welcome to contact Prof. Giulia Scalet (giulia.scalet [at] unipv.it). Please attach a CV.
PhD positions are available in the group of Prof. Stefano Gonella at the University of Minnesota. The positions are in the general area of mechanics and physics of solids, with emphasis on mechanical and elastic metamaterials and wave physics.
Current topics of interest include:
1) Topological mechanics and metamaterials
2) Optimization of metamaterials and metastructures
3) Mechanics of lattices
Dera iMechanica Community,
Below is information about a short course I will be offering at MIT this summer, in Live Virtual format: Machine Learning for Materials Informatics (Jul 29 - Aug 2, 2024). This is an exciting opportunity that will cover fundamentals and applications in the emerging space of AI/ML for engineering, featuring hands-on interactive code development in Jupyter notebooks. We'll do a deep dive into all critical tools from autoencoders to graph neural nets to multimodal LLMs and multi-agent modeling. Please reach out to me if you have any questions.
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.
More information can be found on
Postdoc positions are immediately available in the School of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (First Class Academic Discipline) at Central South University in Dr. Li's research group. Lists of topics of interest are:
1. Impact Fatigue;
2. Fluid and structure interaction;
3. Rain Erosion
4. Fatigue of composite materials and joints
The 15th International Conference of Computational Methods (ICCM2024) this year will be held ONLINE! We are welcoming your submissions to MS-036 Mechanics of soft materials. Deadline for submissions is 30th March. Details available HERE!
Dear colleagues,
We are reaching out to remind you that abstract submission for the 8th International Conference on Computational and Mathematical Biomedical Engineering (CMBE24) is now open.
