This study is dedicated to the characterization and modelling of the mechanical behavior of a titanium alloy under complex strain paths representative of incremental forming. A combined experimental and numerical approach is to be developed. A commercial alloy in sheet form is considered (cf. attached file for a full description).
Dear colleagues,
New Assistant Professor position with experimental focus on polymer matrix composites at TU Delft.

Examples of areas of interest (not in any particular order):
There are PhD and MS openings at the University of California Merced in the Mechanical Engineering Department. UC Merced is the newest campus of the well-known University of California system. Because the campus is still relatively small, most incoming graduate students are funded via Teaching Assistantship or Graduate Research Assistantship. Also, the application fee will be refunded for students who are admitted and join the program in the Fall. The application deadline is January 2018.
Ann and H.J. Smead Aerospace Engineering Sciences Department in the College of Engineering and Applied Science at the University of Colorado Boulder invites applications for two tenure-track/tenured faculty position in all areas of aerospace engineering sciences.
We are looking for a doctoral student to work on numerical modelling of fragmentation of quasi-brittle materials. In more detail, you will study breakage and fragmentation of ice blocks. These phenomena occur under compressive loads in ice block to ice block contacts. The fragmentation process is complicated, and requires novel numerical modelling techniques. Modelling may need to be done on different scales, which may have to reach from very high resolution modeling to simplified contact models on larger scale.
A postdoctoral researcher or a PHD RA position is available immediately in Smart Material Lab of the Department of Mechanical and Energy Engineering at the University of North Texas. The postdoc/RA will work on a project on ultrasound through wall data communications. Ideal candidates should have a background in mechanical or electrical engineering and should have some of the following experience:
1. Knowledge and skills on piezoelectric device design such as sensors and energy harvesters
2. Understanding of ultrasound theory and experiment method
Hello,
We are recruiting a Numerical Simulation Engineer / Doctor specialized in elastomers and completely bilingual in French- English.
