Chair and Lectureship in BioEngineering at Durham University, UK
Colleagues
Can I draw your attention to a Chair position and Lectureship in Bioengineering at the School of Engineering, Durham University. While the curent Chair position is occupied by an experimentalist, the postitions are open to candidates with interests in computational modelling and I would encourage anyone in that area to take a look.
Further details are available at the Durham jobs website https://jobs.dur.ac.uk/default.asp. Closing dates are 10/07/09 for the Chair and 31/07/09 for the Lectureship.
Tenure track positions at Halmstad University
Halmstad University (Sweden) is looking for young researchers to join our research groups in embedded and intelligent systems, specifically for intelligent vehicles in joint work with Volvo Technology in Gothenburg. Two positions are currently open: one with a focus on vehicle diagnostics, maintenance and uptime, and one with a focus on autonomous vehicles.
Looking for a PhD student
A Ph.D. position has recently become available in my research group (www.eng.uwyo.edu/mechanical/research/frick/), to explore thermo-mechanical
behavior of shape memory polymers for biomedical applications. A
strong candidate with a M.S. or B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering,
Materials Science, or a related discipline is required. A good
academic record, a clear interest in experimental sciences, and an
enthusiasm to conduct outstanding research are the only prerequisites.
A post-doc position available for molecular dynamics modeling of nanoparticle growth
A post-doc researcher position is available from Sept 2009. Please contact Prof. John Wen at the Univerity of Waterloo. (jzwen [at] uwaterloo.ca (jzwen[at]uwaterloo[dot]ca))
Postdoctoral Research Fellow Position in Computational Nanomechanics at the University of Pittsburgh
A postdoctoral research fellow position is currently open in the Computational Nanomechanics group at the University of Pittsburgh for the following research projects in the multidisciplinary areas of computational nanomechanics, nanotechnology, renewable energy, and nanomedicine:
- Hydrogen and bio-sensing nanowire fabrication
Open PhD Position for Chinese Students Residing in Mainland, China
I am currently seeking for Chinese PhD applicants (now residing in Mainland, China) to work in the experimental characterisation and numerical modelling areas of nanomaterials/polymer nanocomposites at Department of Mechanical Engineering, Curtin University of Technology, Australia. Please see my departmental webpage for any further enquiry (http://mech.eng.curtin.edu.au/dong/index.cfm). The specific research projects can be discussed in contact for the joint research interests.
Looking for a graduate student
HELP WANTED
I am looking for a graduate student or a Postdoc who is interested to work on a research project in modeling and simulation of self-healing surfaces and related topics.
The candidate is expected to major in Mechanical Engineering or Materials Science (background in surface mechanics / physics / tribology is preferred), to be comfortable with computational software (MATLAB, Ansys or similar), and to be enthusiastic about producing modeling/computational results and preparing publications.
