The solid mechanics program in the School of Engineering, Brown University has an opening for a postdoctoral research associate in the area of mechanics of battery electrode materials.
The successful candidate will develop and apply continuum-scale models of mechanical decrepitation and capacity loss in Li ion insertion electrodes. The project will involve close collaboration with atomic-scale modelers, experimentalists and industrial partners.
Closing date of application: March 24. 2012
The University of Stavanger invites applications for a three-year doctorate scholarship in Mechanical engineering at the Faculty of Science and Technology in the Department of Mechanical and Structural and Materials Science, beginning August 15, 2012.
The title of the project is “Structural health monitoring using updated finite element models”.
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.

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.

********
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.
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. More details will be provided to interested individuals.
Interested candidates should contact
Three PhD studentships available at Cardiff University. Deadline Friday 24th of February.
Assuming you get a CSC scholarship, this fellowship will waive your tuition fee for study in computational mechanics in our group.
Please APPLY ONLINE to the University and send me (stephane dot bordas at gmail dot com) a one paragraph research proposal about what you intent to work on. Themes are:
- multiscale fracture
- meshless methods
- extended finite element methods
- moving boundary problems
- fibrous flows
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)
