PhD Position on Dynamics of Mechanical Metamaterials at Boundaries and Interfaces

Submitted by Alireza Amirkhizi on

We have an opening for PhD student at University of Massachusetts, Lowell, Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering. The focus of the research is 

(a) to develop analyltical and computational tools to model the wave interaction and scattering at the interfaces between micro-structured media and homogeneous domain, 

(b) to evalulate the proposed models experimentally using additively (or otherwised) manufacutres specimens, and

Postdoctoral Researcher position in the field of experimental ice mechanics

Submitted by Jukka Tuhkuri on

Understanding how ice fractures has fundamental importance in arctic marine technology and geophysics. The fracture processes of interest include fragmentation of sea ice against polar ships, ice sheets broken by ocean waves, leads forming in sea ice, and formation of crevasses in glaciers. The importance of ice fracture research is enhanced by global warming, which is both increasing the fragmentation and changing the mechanical properties of ice. Warm ice is different that cold ice.

Ph.D. position - Molecular Dynamics - University of West Bohemia – Czech Republic

Submitted by Jan Ocenasek on

The successful candidate will be at the forefront of cutting-edge research in Computational Materials Science, employing advanced molecular dynamics computer simulations (using LAMMPS software) to delve into the intricacies of metallic single crystals and concentrated alloys. The primary focus will encompass the investigation of specific material properties, with a particular emphasis on understanding phenomena such as surface resistance to defect nucleation, dislocation interactions or twinning formation.
