Our Group of Appleid mechanics in Enviormental & Civil Engineering Department at Michigan State University has an openings for PhD positions to work on Multiscale Modeling of Soft Materials starting Spring 2014 or Fall 2015.
About Us
The Science and Technology Facilities Council is a world-leading multi-disciplinary science organisation and our goal is to deliver economic, societal, scientific and international benefits to the UK and its people – and more broadly to the world.
Underpinned by £37.5 million of Government investment and combining the UK’s premier supercomputing environment with an unrivalled depth and breadth of related skills and experience, The Hartree Centre accelerates research and innovation and pushes the boundaries of the possible.
A position of associate professor is available for foreign scientists at the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Politecnico di Milano (Milano, Italy). Details can be found at: http://www.AcademicKeys.com/r?job=57802
A new post-doc position (1 year renewable up to 3 years, till the end of the ERC Starting Grant Project CA2PVM, http://musam.imtlucca.it/CA2PVM.html ) is open in the Research Unit MUSAM - Multi-scale Analysis of Materials ( http://musam.imtlucca.it ) directed by Prof.
Position Description: Two postdoctoral associate positions in the area of advanced synthesis and nano/micro-scale characterization of nanoparticles are available at Rice University. Various techniques will be applied to synthesize and self-assemble size- and shape-controlled silicate nanoparticles followed by nano- and micro-characterizations including a myriad of probes such as electron microscopies (TEM, XRD, SEM, AFM), ICP, XPS, NMR, porosimetry, dynamic mechanical analysis, nanoindentation, etc.
The Adv. Computational Materials and Experimental Evaluation laboratory at Purdue University’s School of Aerospace Engineering invites applications from highly motivated individuals for a postdoctoral position. This position is supported by a 2 year sponsored project from DARPA that seeks to advance the development of time dependent behavior of aerospace alloys.
Full scholarship (stipend+tuition fee waiver) for 3 PhD students and a fulltime Research Fellow (Level B) position are now available at School of Aerospace, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, RMIT University, Australia. These positions are fully funded by Australian Reserach Council (ARC). The successful applicants will join our research team to work on an ARC Discovery Project and an ARC Linkage Project in one of the following areas:
(1) mechanics of composite/nanocomposite structures;
(2) Multiscale simulation of nanotubes/graphene reinforced composites;
Post-doctoral position at the University of Valenciennes (LAMIH UMR CNRS 8201) for the modeling of the strength of spot-welded assemblies.

Modelling of Dislocation-Microstructure Interaction at a Short Crack Tip
This project aims to model dislocation-microstructure interaction at a crack tip and associated short crack growth for nickel alloys.
You will join the vibrant Mechanics of Advanced Materials group at Loughborough (www.lboro.ac.uk/moam) which has gained significant experience in the study of mechanical behaviour of advanced materials.
