job

Professor Nasser Khalili's research group at the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, UNSW Sydney, Australia (https://www.engineering.unsw.edu.au/civil-engineering/staff/nasser-khal…), is looking for several PhD students on the following topics:

1) Computational Mechanics of Multiphase Porous Materials

2) Geo-structure Health Monitoring and Predictive Maintenance

3) Computational Fracture Mechanics

Specifically, the post requires expert knowledge in experimental and/or computational mechanics of materials and/or tribology. The position is part of a large international EPSRC-SFI funded project aimed at developing next generation textile triboelectric nanogenerators (or T-TENGs) for powering of wearable electronics.  This position will focus on the mechanics and tribology of T-TENGs and will involve both modelling and experimental work.
