job

Transportation of heavy acidic fluids is often done with specifically designed lined pipelines. The pipelines typically have an outer steel wall (thickness ~15 mm) and an inner ceramic coating (thickness ~1 mm). The proper functioning of such lined pipelines is almost exclusively determined by the inner ceramic coating. In case there would be a leak in the ceramic coating, the acidic fluid will corrode through the outer steel wall in a matter of hours, leading to a full shutdown of the industrial plant.

We have two new PhD positions to work on Mechanics and Manufacturing/characterization of nanomaterials and nanocomposites with starting dates of Fall 2020 or Spring 2021. A stipend, full tuition and health insurance will be provided.

A postdoc position is available in the area of granular mechanics and discrete element modeling (DEM) of biomass particles in support of a multidisciplinary research project between Clemson University and the Department of Energy’s Idaho National Laboratory (INL). 

CU Boulder's PSAAP Multidisciplinary Simulation Center has an opening for a Research Software Engineer to co-lead development of robust, extensible open source software for extreme-scale simulation of large-deformation composite poro-elasto-visco-plastic media across a broad range of regimes with experimental validation and coordination with micromorphic multiscale models.
