job

The Depart­ment of Physics and Astronomy invites ap­plications for a tenure-track position in physics in the area of experimental nanomechanics/tribology starting Fall 2016. Re­spon­si­bilities include: teaching a full range of classes (from introductory to graduate level) in physics, especially mechanics; lead­ing mechanics-related activities; performing departmental service; and conducting scholarly activity. Minimum qualifications: A master's degree plus 18 semester hours.  Preferred qualifications: Ph.D.

Applications are invited for a fully funded PhD studentship at the University of Manchester to help develop the next generation of simulation tools. These will be used to evaluate the structural integrity of novel aerospace composites under a wide range of operational conditions. The student will join a €3-4M euro research project that has recently been funded to investigate the use of biomaterials in aerospace composites. The project involves a range of academic and industrial partners in Europe and China, providing many opportunities for overseas research visits.

Composite Materials & Dynamics Laboratory at University of Missouri, Columbia develops innovative solutions for acoustic/elastic wave control, smart materials, and structural health monitoring. We seek exceptional postdoc scientists to work closely with our research group on exciting research in multifunctional metamaterials for manipulating acoustic/elastic wave propagation, structural health monitoring and sensor applications.

Essential Duties:

As a member of a world-class research team, she/he will:

We plan to recruit a full time postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Southampton to start in early 2016 for the duration of 2.5 years. This multidisciplinary project focuses on design and integration of a multi-sensor system for medical device applications. Through implementing and exploiting these systems, he/she will also carry out scientific studies on biomechanical understanding and disseminate findings through journal publications and conference presentations.

Candidates with general mechatronics background are suitable. Experience in any of the following areas are desirable including instrumentation, control, embedded systems, design & computing, programming, sensor systems, signal/image processing, vision based systems etc.

To express interest and/or for further information, please provide your CV and contact Prof. Liudi Jiang (L.Jiang [at] soton.ac.uk), Tel: +44 (0)23 80598748.
