job

The Research Center for Mechanics of Solids, Structures and Materials at the University of Texas at Austin invites applications for an open position as Post-doctoral Fellow. The specific project involves collaboration with the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston and requires the Fellow to work at both institutions. The work involves experimental characterization of tissues and surgical remodeling, and development of computational modeling of surgical reconstruction.

The post is funded through a recently awarded four year European H2020 research project SINTBAT (Silicon based materials and new processing technologies for improved lithium-ion batteries), and coordinated by VARTA.

I am currently looking to fill an open PhD position in a project titled:

Advanced Virtual Design of 3D Printed Fusion Reactor Components

This is to continue recent work that uses X-ray tomography, high performance computing and finite element analysis to design the plasma facing wall of the ITER reactor. Recent related publications can be found below:

Full PhD scholarship (tuition fee plus $25,406/year stipend ) is immediately available at the School of Engineering, RMIT University, Australia. Applications are invited for one open position in one of the following areas: (1) Mechanics of carbon nanotubes and graphene; (2) Multiscale simulation of nanotubes/graphene reinforced composites; (3) Mechanical and Electrical behaviours of composite structures. The research work is supported by Australian Research Council under DECRA scheme. 

Applications are sought for four Post-Doctoral Research Associates and two PhDs to join a very active research group at Cardiff University, UK (School of Engineering).  Based in Cardiff, there will be frequent interactions with the University of California, San Diego as well as major aerospace companies in the UK. The research will formulate and develop numerical methods for mulitiscale and multiphysics design optimisation using level set topology optimization.

One or more of research experience in the following areas are required.

The Department of Aerospace Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras is seeking to fill Assistant Professor vacancies in the following research areas.

1) Experimental Structural Mechanics/ Composites
2) Aircraft Aerodynamics (experimentalists preferred)
3) Control and Flight Mechanics of Aerospace vehicles
4) Aircraft Design (aerodynamic/structural)
