Searching for PhD (thesis) candidate and Postdoctoral research associate, to work in Multiscale Materials Modeling, with special emphasis in crystal plasticity modelling with the finite element method.
Description: Outstanding applications are invited to join the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UCL as part of an EPSRC industrial CASE (iCASE) PhD studentship. The PhD project is being jointly supervised by Professor Ian Eames and Dr Emad Moeendarbary from the Department of Mechanical Engineering (University College London, UCL) and Dr Alireza Azarbadegan from BP plc (British multinational oil and gas company).
A PhD position is available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Science at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. The research project is in the multiscale modeling of damage and fracture. Candidates should have a strong background and interests in continuum mechanics and finite elements modeling. Programming experience in Fortran or C++ is a big plus. The starting date for this position is August 2018.
A Doctorate student position is available for Summer/Fall 2018 in Mechanical Engineering. The applicant must have a master in Mechanical or Material Engineering or equivalent field. It is highly preferred that the applicants are specialized in solid mechanics. Knowledge in Surface Mechanics, Tribology and Additive Manufacturing is a plus. The position is directed by Multiscale Contact Mechanics and Tribology Laboratory at George Mason University, Fairfax, VA, USA. Interested applicants are encouraged to apply ASAP.
