Title: Exploration of novel multiaxial high strain rate tests of materials based on full-field strain measurements and inverse identification
Sponsor: EOARD http://www.wpafb.af.mil/library/factsheets/factsheet.asp?id=16662/
Start of PhD: end of September 2013
The Biosystems and Biomaterials Group at NIST has two postdoctoral positions available for recent PhD graduate to work on (1) simulation of photon transport (light migration) in polymeric composites (2) modeling of cell-material adhesive interactions. These interdisciplinary research programs require the prospective applicants to have a strong background in computational methods (finite element or MD). For the cell-material interaction, candidates with prior experience on biophysics are preferred.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering at Politecnico di Milano is
currently seeking applicants for PhD positions in the following research areas:
We at ADINA R & D are looking for a Research & Development Engineer in Solids and Structures — general
finite element development. A PhD in applied mechanics or a related
discipline is highly desirable for this position. Applicant must have excellent
knowledge of finite element methods and good programming skills (Fortran
or C/C++).
We are looking for PhD candidates to study interfaces in SiC/SiC fiber composites. The project is in collaboration with CEA and Centre des Matériaux, MINES ParisTech under the supervision of Marie-Hélène Berger (MINES ParisTech), Cédric Sauder (DMN/SRMA/LTMEX) and Sylvie Poissonnet (DMN/SRMP).
Title : "Influence of Carbone interphases in SiC/SiC composites based on Hi-Nicalon S and Tyranno SA3 fibers"
There is a PhD opening in the Dept of Civil Engineering-Engineering Mechanics at the University of Arizona to work with Professor Katerina E. Aifantis. The research topic is not defined yet, but will be in the area of continuum mechanics at the nanoscale. A bachelor in engineering is required and a master's would be preferred. The start date will be in mid August but the position needs to be filled as soon as possible. Those interested can contact katerinaaifantis [at] gmail.com
Dear All,
We are planning to offer several PhD/Post-Doc positions at University of Strathclyde, Glasgow. The positions are expected to be in the area of computational mechanics including finite element analysis and panel methods. If you are interested, please send your current CV to oterkus [at] gmail.com .
Best Regards,
Dr. Erkan Oterkus
