Dear All,
I would like to bring to your attention seven new research opportunities at the University of Oxford and at the Fraunhofer Institute in Freiburg (DE).
These are for four Post-Doctoral Research Assistantships (one at Oxford, three at Freiburg) and three PhD
Studentships (all at Oxford).

PhD or Postdoc position
The Interdisciplinary Centre for Advanced Materials Simulation (ICAMS) is a new research centre at the Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany. At ICAMS an interdisciplinary team of scientists from engineering, materials science, chemistry, physics and mathematics is working on the development and application of a new generation of simulation tools for multi-scale materials modelling.
A postdoctoral position is available in the area of interfacial mechanics of soft materials at Rutgers University working under the supervision of Prof. Cuitino. The position is supported by the National Science Foundation and industrial partners of the NSF Engineering Research Center for Structured Organic Particulate Systems (http://ercforsops.org/).
A postdoctoral fellowship is available in the Duke Computational Mechanics Laboratory, beginning in September of 2009 (with flexibility on timing). Funding for the fellowship concerns research in the simulation of large-scale fragmentation phenomena. The ideal candidate will have experience in some combination of the following areas:
We are looking for a post-doctoral candiate in the area of computational (bio)mechanics. The project involves solving inverse problems in finite deformation elasticity with applications to the detection and diagnosis of cancerous tumors. Interested applicants should contact Prof. Oberai (http://www.rpi.edu/~oberaa/).
Researchers at Duke University are seeking applications for NRC research associates, to work with Professors David Stepp and John Dolbow. The NRC program is unique in the sense that applicants have the opportunity to perform research on a program they design. The positions are well-paid fellowships and are nominally for two years, extendable to a third.
