New PhD position is immediately available at Tribology and Surface Mechanics lab for Spring/Summer 2024. Candidates with strong mechanical engineering background in solid mechanics and analytical works are encouraged to apply. Master degree is required. Experience with FEM software is a must. Experience with ABAQUS is preferred. Knowledge on soft polymers mechanical behavior is also preferred, but not required. Priority will be given to those who are already in the US.

We have openings for postdoctoral positions in the Balakrishna Research Group (https://ananyabalakrishna.com/) at UCSB. The successful candidate will develop mathematical models (phase-field, molecular dynamics, DFT) and numerical methods to investigate the origins of chemo-mechanical degradation in battery materials. Beyond batteries, we also have openings to pursue original research on topics related to phase transformations in soft magnetic alloys, shape-memory alloys, and light interactive molecular crystals.
One postdoc position is available in the Departments of Materials Science and Engineering and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Connecticut (UConn).The Postdoc candidate is expected to
• have a Ph.D. degree in Engineering mechanics, Mechanical/Biomedical/Electrical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, or a closely related area.
• have research experiences or background in one or more of the following research areas:
-Biophysical or biochemical sensors
Are you interested in undertaking a PhD in the interdisciplinary field of computational cardiovascular biomechanics? If so, there are positions available in my research group and details are provided below.
The Zhao Research Group (https://sites.usc.edu/zhaogroup/) in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at University of Southern California is seeking applications for an immediately available postdoctoral position in soft robotics. The objective of this project is to develop novel dexterous soft robotic manipulators incorporating advanced sensors, actuators, and closed-loop control.
We have multiple PhD positions in the area of micromechanics of polycrystalline materials, e.g., metals and alloys as well as ceramics. We are looking for self-motivated and enthusiastic students with a degree in mechanical or materials engineering. Students with following research backgrounds are strongly recommended to apply:
I am looking for a highly motivated student with a background in Mechanical engineering, Civil engineering, Materials science, or related fields for a fully funded PhD position in my group in the mechanical engineering department at University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC).
Successful applicants should have strong interests and relevant skills in at least one of the following areas:
- High performance computing and reduced-order modeling techniques (Proper Generalized Decomposition, Hyper Reduction, etc.)
