The use of 3D printed metal structures is taking a very fast ramp-up in industry. General Electric has demonstrated the possibility of printing titanium fuel injectors for their LEAP engine, EADS has printed a nacelle hinge bracket for the Airbus A320, Boeing is printing plastic inlet ducts for high-altitude aircrafts, hip implants and other prosthetics are exploiting the design freedom of additive manufacturing (AM),...

Helping a friend to post this oppotunity - Head of the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. (I am not moving:))
More details can be found in the attachment, and applications and querry should be directed to the Search Committee Chair for Headship of CIVL (dhcivl@ust.hk).

We are looking for a highly motivated Ph.D. student to work on Multiscale Mechanics of Materials, with a focus on Cell Adhesion and Mechanobiology.

A position as a post-doctoral research associate is available in the Innovative and Smart Infrastructure Group (ISIG) at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, Tennessee. This post-doc will work with Dr. Wierschem on a research project related to vibration isolation. This post-doc position is expected to begin as soon as January 2021; however, later start dates will be considered.

The Mechanics of Infrastructure Materials research group are looking to hire a Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA) to work in the EPSRC New Horizons project NanoHMAT. The project, led by Dr Emilio Martínez-Pañeda, aims at exploring high-risk high-gain approaches for developing a new generation of hydrogen embrittlement-resistant materials.

We are seeking a creative and enthusiastic postdoc to work at Duke University as part of a collaborative new DOE funded project entitled "FAIR Data and Interpretable AI Framework for Architectured Metamaterials". Candidate should have phd in mechanical or materials engineering, with experience in mechanical metamaterials, the underlying physical principles, finite element simulations, and preferably some knowledge of AI/ML and desire to learn more.

A fully supported PhD position in computational mechanics is available in the Civil Engineering Department at Stony Brook University under the guidance of Dr. Georgios Moutsanidis. The desired start date is Fall 2021. 

A highly motivated and talented candidate is sought for developing novel and efficient computational techniques, and applying them to the following problems:

1)    Extreme events modeling
