Two PhD openings are available for Fall 2018 (flexible start date), in the lab of Dr Bouklas at Cornell MAE.
(https://www.mae.cornell.edu/people/profile.cfm?netid=nb589)
The research topics are:
a) Mechanics/multiphysics of soft materials and bio-materials.
b) Mechanics of contractile biological cells.
The areas of interest in both topics are computational mechanics, continuum mechanics, fracture mechanics, contact mechanics and stability.
I would like to raise your attention to the following prestigious European fellowship opportunity:
-> 90 postdoctoral positions available for applicants from all over the world to work for two years in the best research universities in the Netherlands. Applicants choose the research topic and advisor to work on the application.

We propose a post-doctoral fellow grant on modeling and simulation of cable transport systems of 18 months in Grenoble, France at INRIA and STRMTG.
Context :
A position exists, for a Research Assistant/Research Associate in the Department of Engineering, to work on the mechanics of failure of adhesive joints. The post holder will be located in Central Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, UK.
A PhD position or a Post-Doc position, depending on the candidate skills are available in the Department of Sciences and Methods fo Engineering at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy. The research project is in the smart composite materials design. The candidate will have to design and optimize a composite structure with embedded SMA for morphing application. Candidates should have possibly a strong background in mechanics, finite elements simulations and smart materials.
The candidate will work in a project related with smart manufacturing of composite materials by injection/infusion techniques. The project will consist in a joint collaboration between Data Mining Research Group from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) and IMDEA Materials Institute. The research activities will be focussed on the application of simulation techniques (computational fluid mechanics) to the optimization of manufacturing process of composite materials by liquid moulding, including the creation of a physical demonstrator.
