University Lecturer Position in Solid Mechanics in Oxford

Submitted by goriely on

We have opened a position of University Lecturer (more or less equivalent to Assistant Prof and Associate Prof in the US system) in " Mathematics in Materials Science".

This is a position at the interface between mathematics and solid mechanics (and associated fields). People either with strong modelling skills or strong mathematical background are encouraged to apply.

Postdoctoral Newton Fellowship in Computational Mechanics and Advanced Materials

Submitted by Stephane Bordas on

http://www.newtonfellowships.org/

the iMAM is welcoming applications from outstanding post-doctoral researchers from outside the UK seeking research experience in our computational mechanics group. The successful candidate would join a group of 7 post-docs and 7 PhD students led by four academics and, in particular, an ERC Starting Independent Research Group.

Email stephane dot bordas at gmail dot com for details.

Best regards from Cardiff,

Graduate studentship (Master or Ph.D) available in computational materials science

Submitted by cdeng on

Openings for two graduate studentship (Master/Ph.D) are available for the fall semester, 2012 in the Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering at the Univeristy of Manitoba. Students who have a strong background in materials simulations (molecular dynamics, monte carlo simulations, or phase field) are especially encouraged to apply. The potential students will work on one or more of the following projects: (1) Solute effects on grain boundary diffusivity/mobility; (2) Microplasticity in metallic glass and nanocomposites; (3) Plasticity in metal nanowires.

A Post-doctoral Position in Ultrasonics at the Ohio State University

Submitted by Jia Li on

Post-doctoral position is available in the area of ultrasonic nondestructive evaluation (strong background and experience in ultrasonic experiment and modeling are required). The focus area is ultrasonic study of like polycrystalline materials, composites and adhesive bonds. State of the art ultrasonic laboratories and other characterization facilities are available.

PhD Structural Vibration and Analysis/Computational Mechanics

Submitted by Stephane Bordas on

PhD Scholarship: Structural vibration analysis and computational mechanics

One scholarship is available for a PhD student to pursue research in the School of Engineering at the University of Waikato towards the development of a general analytical procedure for vibration analysis of complex structures. In modelling solid bodies with voids, we will consider treating the voids as embedded negative bodies.

The successful candidate will work with:

Professor Sinniah Ilanko and Dr Yusuke Mochida (University of Waikato, New Zealand)

School of Engineering

LRET Lecturer/Senior Lecturer/Reader in Safety and Reliability Engineering

Reference Number 1231244



Building on a 20-year track record in safety engineering, the School of Engineering at the University of Aberdeen in partnership with The Lloyd's Register Educational Trust (The LRET) is establishing a centre of excellence for research and teaching in the safety and reliability of engineering systems, structures and processes.

Two Nano-Tribology postdoctoral positions in Tel Aviv University

Submitted by shmuel on

Two postdoctoral positions are available in the group of Prof. M. Urbakh in lively Tel-Aviv. Topics are centered around nano and micro-scale tribology (friction, dissipation, adhesion, wear) involving theory, modeling, and computer simulation of frictional and nonlinear
dissipation phenomena.

The projects focus on: (i) studies of friction at micropatterened surfaces with biomimetic and sensing applications, and (ii) novel approaches to control frictional response at the nanoscale through application of electric field, light and force modulations.
