job
Head of Research Unit (Experienced Researcher)
The Institute of Structural Analysis invites applications for a position as a Head of Research Unit (Experienced Researcher) (ref. no. 90) for leading the research unit „Composites“ and to be appointed at the earliest possible date.
The department composites is performing research on development and validation of new computational methods for fibre reinforced materials and structures ranging from nano to macro scale (structural component). The research unit consists of 17 scientists.
Post Doctoral position in Mechanical Engineering at Purdue
Purdue University is seeking applications from outstanding candidates for Postdoctoral Scholar positions to work on mesoscale simulations of physical and chemical processes at extreme conditions of pressure and temperature. The successful candidate(s) will join a multidisciplinary team including modelers and experimentalists working at multiple scales and collaborate at Purdue, Los Alamos National Laboratory and Stanford University.
Opening a postdoctoral researcher and a PhD student
The M&S Lab is recruiting highly motivated a postdoctoral scholar. The appointment is initially for one year but can be extended up to four years. The candidate is expected to be highly self-motivated, independent, and collaborative with a proven record of high-quality publications. Starting dates are negotiable.
Ph.D. students opening in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the Iowa State University
A research group at Iowa State University is looking for research assistants in the field of solid mechanics, computational mechanics, and computational materials science. Research topics will fall into a broad area of modeling and simulation of mechanical and transport behaviors, such as plasticity, fracture, phase transformation, thermal transport, or mass transport, in a variety of materials.
PhD Position on Origami and Kirigami Inspired Material Systems at Clemson University
Fully funded PhD positions are available at the Dynamic Matter Group in Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Clemson University: https://www.clemson.edu/cecas/departments/me/.
PhD position - Development of mesoscale hydro-chemo-mechanical (HMC) modeling approach for concrete deterioration.
Objectives
The main aim of this project is to develop a robust computational framework for investigating the hydro-chemo-mechanical aspect of concrete carbonation at meso-scale.
Postdoctoral and PhD students Position on Acoustic Metamaterials at University of Missouri
Composite Materials & Dynamics Laboratory (http://cmdl.missouri.edu/) at University of Missouri develops innovative solutions for Solid Mechanics and Structured Materials, in particular the new frontiers of structural dynamics, wave propagation, micromechanics, topological and quantum mechanics, smart materials and dynamical behaviours of multi-functional materials, both man-made and formed naturally, and understanding relationship between microstructures and material macroscopic properties.
PhD position @QMUL-London: ERC project on FLOW-INDUCED DEFORMATION OF SUSPENDED 2D NANOMATERIALS
A fully-funded PhD position is available in the Fluids, Particles and Interfaces Group led by Lorenzo Botto at Queen Mary University of London, in the area of fluid-structure interaction in 2D nanomaterials. The goal is to study with simulation and theory how flexible 2D nanoparticles suspended in sheared liquids deform, delaminate and break. Further details are given below.
