Two Ph.D. positions and one postdoc position are available in Wang Research lab (https://www.wangresearchlab.com) in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Missouri, Columbia.
Ph.D. positions
The Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung (Düsseldorf, Germany) offers a position in the department Structure and Nano-/Micromechanics of Materials (Prof. G. Dehm): PhD student or postdoc position in “Atomistic Computer Simulation of Grain Boundary Structure and Mechanics”
Understanding how grain boundaries influence plasticity will lead to significant advances in material design. In the context of the department’s research, the overarching aim of this PhD project is to connect grain boundary structures in fcc metals to physical properties.
One Ph.D. position in the field of design and mechanics of additively manufactured lattice structures is available in my group in the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department at the University of Alabama in Huntsville. This position is in the support of the 2020 NSF CAREER Award (https://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=1943465&HistoricalAwards=false)
Open PhD positions are available in the Materials and Mechanics Lab, in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Stony Brook University. The research will involve multiscale modeling and characterization of the fracturing of carbon fiber composites. The desired start date is Spring 2021.
The preferred qualifications for the position are:
A position as a Post-doc in the Innovative and Smart Infrastructure Group (ISIG) at the University of Tennessee working with Dr. Wierschem is available starting in Fall 2020. This position is available to US Citizens only. This post-doc will be involved in a research project on vibration isolation. The ideal candidate will have experience in structural dynamics with a PhD in Civil, Mechanical, or Aerospace Engineering or a related field. Interested candidates should email Dr. Wierschem (nwiersch at utk.edu) with a CV.
We are looking for a post-doctoral researcher to work 18 months on a US Air Force sponsored project focused on developing new image-based tests to identify stiffness and strength of adhesives at high strain rates. Some preliminary results can be found here. The deadline for application is August 4th 2020. The advert is available here.
The Department of Microsystems Engineering and the Department of Applied Mathematics at the University of Freiburg are calling for applications for
Two doctoral or postdoctoral researcher positions
Multiple Post-doctoral researcher positions with competitive salary (335000 RMB/year) are available in Dr. Hongyan Yuan’s research group at SUSTech (http://faculty.sustech.edu.cn/yuanhy3/) in Shenzhen, China.
Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing or WAAM techniques are attracting interest from the manufacturing industry because of their potential to produce large metal components with low cost and short production lead time. This process exists alongside other high deposition rate metal AM technologies such as powder and wire based DED. While these use either laser or an electron beam as energy source to melt a metal powder or wire, WAAM technologies melt metal wire using an electric arc.
