The Department of Mechanical Engineering seeks candidates for a tenure-track faculty position in the field of Solid Mechanics to begin July 1, 2009 or thereafter. Appointment would be at the assistant or untenured associate professor level. In special cases, a senior faculty appointment may be possible. Candidates should have a strong foundation in Solid Mechanics, and should hold an earned Ph.D.
Both positions are in QLD, Australia.
1. Objectives
Development of good practice for Combined below rail and above rail decision model for reducing cost, risks and enhancing rail-wheel life based on:
Rail grinding
Wheel-rail condition monitoring.
2. The aim of the project is to collect already completed research that can be used to inform and improve existing industry practices of wheel-rail friction modification. This will include:
Research that leads to a ranking applicators in order of effectiveness

The Department of Mechanical Engineering seeks an outstanding individual for a full-time tenure-track position in materials science with emphasis on the fabrication of micro and nanoscale materials and devices. Especially encouraged are applicants with interest in sustainable energy. The opening is at the Assistant Professor level but candidates with strong records will be considered for appointment at a higher level.
The scientific goal of the project is to develop a multi-scale computational method that uses a single hierarchical data-structure as basis – involving also multiple fields. Starting from mesoscopic structures (particles or domains) a grid is constructed on a hierarchical, tree-based data structure. The hierarchical approach allows for micro-macro transition, coupling of different fields, and coarsening or refinement – where possible or needed, respectively.
Dr. Kassab’s Cardiovascular Biomechanics Lab (Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, IUPUI) is seeking a post doctoral fellow in micromechanics and multiscale modeling/simulation of the mechanical behaviors of coronary arteries. The project is well funded by NIH. Please see attachments for description of the position and abstract of the research plan.
Mellichamp Chair in Systems Biology. The University of California Santa Barbara seeks to hire a highly creative and productive individual to fill a Mellichamp Chair in Systems Biology. The opening has resulted from a philanthropic gift that has been generously donated by Duncan and Suzanne Mellichamp.
Candidates at all levels will be considered. The primary academic appointment will be in either Mechanical Engineering or Electrical Engineering, with a possible joint appointment in a related science department.
Hello Everybody
I am S Phaneendra, a Computational Mechanics Masters Student at UPC, Barcelona. I will be completing my masters degree by June 2009. I am working masters thesis, developing a material model for composites. Can anyone pls do me a favour by listing a few industries which can provide career opportunities for me in the related field.
Thank You
The LMPM (http://www.lmpm.ensma.fr) seeks candidates for a post-doctoral position in the domain of numerical development applied to the modelling of coupled phenomena. It consists in understanding, modelling and simulating the different couplings (like mechanical, thermal, chemical and diffusion problems) on industrial cases.
The LMPM is a research centre in France which focuses on durability of material under severe environment (multiphysic coupling).
