PhD Positions in the areas of computational mechanics and soft tissue biomechanics are available in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Illinois, Chicago.
Requirements:
a. The candidates must have already earned (or should soon earn) an M.Sc. degree in Mechanical Engineering or in a closely related field.
b. They should have strong previous background in experimental and/or numerical methods.
Context :
EDF Research and Development and EDF Energy are currently developing their new centre: the EDF Energy R&D UK Centre. In addition, EDF R&D and the University of Manchester have created the Modelling and Simulation Centre in 2011. In the scope of the development of nuclear energy in the UK, EDF R&D and EDF Energy Generation wish to take advantage of this new centre in Manchester.

One PhD Graduate Research Assistant Position
A Graduate Research Assistant Position are available for U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents who have completed a Master of Science (M.S.) degree in Civil Engineering or a related field and wish to pursue Ph.D. degree in Civil Engineering from Spring 2016. We will also consider outstanding students who have completed their B.S. degree and want to directly pursue their Ph.D. degree starting.
Applications are invited for three PhD positions within the Cognitive Performance Optimization Laboratory (COPOL) in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of New Brunswick.
Two PhD positions are available immediately in the Computational Materials & Mechanics Laboratory at Missouri University of Science and Technology (Rolla), http://web.mst.edu/~aslezaeemm/.
The project is about multi-phase field modeling of formation and evolution of intermetallics and oxides at high temperatures.
Applications are sought for four Post-Doctoral Research Associates to join a very active research group at Cardiff University, UK (School of Engineering) and the University of California, San Diego, USA (Structural Engineering Department). Three postdocs will be based at Cardiff and one at UC San Diego, and there will be frequent interactions and travels between. The research will formulate and develop numerical methods for mulitiscale and multiphysics design optimisation using level set topology optimization.
Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Fellow in the area of bioMEMS. The candidate will interact closely with personnel at the start-up company iNfinitesimal, LLC and collaborators at Northwestern’s Feinberg Medical School. The position will involve research at the intersection of engineering and biology with an emphasis in device design, fabrication, and system integration toward the development of nano- and micro-technologies for biological applications.
Requirements:
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position within the Micro and Nano Mechanics Laboratory in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Northwestern University. The candidate will perform research in the area of nanomechanics of high-performance materials such as 2D materials, nanowires, and biomaterials. The candidate will be expected to contribute to a vibrant multidisciplinary research group and be able to work in close collaboration with chemists and theoreticians.
Requirements:
The Laboratory of Ocular Biomechanics at the University of Pittsburgh is seeking candidates for a postdoctoral fellow position on multi-scale biomechanics of soft tissues. The project goal is to understand aging and vision. To apply, send TWO representative publications and CV to Ian Sigal, PhD (ian [at] ocularbiomechanics.com). More details about the Laboratory of Ocular Biomechanics at www.OcularBiomechanics.org. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis, so early submission is encouraged.
