I am looking to recruit a highly motivated an independent postdoctoral researcher to study, using theoretical and computational techniques, topics related to the dynamics of metamaterials, with specific interest in topological insulators. The position is available immediately, available for at least 1.5 years.
A PhD opening is available in my group, focusing on the development and testing of machine learning potentials for multi-component systems, with focus on predicting dislocation plasticity and grain boundary mechanics in green steels. Motivated candidates with a strong mechanics background are warmly encouraged to apply.

We are hiring PhD students!
Daedalus, our research group at Georgia Institute of Technology, has an opening for two PhD students with interest in experimental solid mechanics and intrumentation development to work towards developing high throughput fracture testing methods as well as mechanics of green structures. Starting date: Fall 2025 or Spring 2026.
Keywords: mechanics, physics, materials engineering, instrument development
PhD Position in Mechatronics Design of Underwater Vehicles
A PhD position will be available at University of Pavia in Italy starting November 2025.
Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Prof. Giulia Scalet (giulia.scalet [at] unipv.it).
The candidate will work on new computational approaches for the simulation of smart polymers and hydrogels and their application to mechanobiology studies.
Are you passionate about solid mechanics and intrigued by machine learning? We are seeking a qualified candidate who can merge expertise from both fields to develop innovative tools for analyzing deformation and fracture in solid materials.
This is a 1-year position starting on 15 August 2025 or as soon possible thereafter.
Applications are invited for a 2-year postdoc fellowship in the area of crystal plasticity finite element modeling of polycrystals. This position is a full-time position at the University of Western Ontario, Canada, and the selected applicant can start from September 2025. In addition, this position is extendable for another year, depending on the availability of funds and the applicant’s performance.
Position Overview
We invite applications for one Ph.D. position starting in September 2025, focusing on computational modeling of battery materials using at least one of the following methods: first-principles calculations (DFT), molecular dynamics (MD), and phase-field modeling. The research will target critical challenges in:
1. Novel materials discovery for All-Solid-State Lithium Batteries and Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) using calculations;
We are hiring for the position of a research fellow in computational fluid-structure interaction.
As the research fellow, you will work on the MAPFSI project funded by the EPSRC, developing cutting-edge computational algorithms for challenging FSI problems.
