job

2 funded PhD positions are available in the Mechanical Engineering Department at Temple University.  One research focus is on the design of architected composite structures for 3D printing.  More broadly, the student will be exposed to computational materials and mechanics of energy, nano/bio, and engineering materials.  The student will have opportunities to work with experimentalists and data scientists to generate high-impact research works.  Temple University is located in Philadelphia, the sixth-most populous U.S.

Postdoc & PhD Positions Open on Civil and Structural Engineering at Tsinghua University, Shenzhen, China

The Artificial Organ Lab at the Departments of Surgery at the University of Maryland is a national leader in the development of circulatory and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support devices. The group is led by a team of engineers and clinicians well-versed in the engineering, clinical, and scientific aspects of medical devices. The research activities are carried out within a multidisciplinary research and design team consisting of clinicians, surgeons, scientists, engineers, residents, and students.

The Mechanics Department at École Polytechnique invites applications for a faculty position at the Assistant Professor level in solids mechanics. See details in attached document.

I would like to share two faculty openings in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

1. Open Rank Faculty Positions in Mechanical Engineering

Areas of interest include (but not limited to): control, robotics and autonomous systems, solid mechanics, manufacturing, and materials. For application, https://apply.interfolio.com/116532

2. Tenure-track Assistant Professor Position - Thermofluids

Two fully funded PhD positions are available in my group in the Mechanical Engineering department at University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC). Successful applicants are expected to work on the development of innovative high performance computational methods for multi-scale modeling of additive manufacturing process and materials. Interested candidates that meet at least two of following requirements are encouraged to apply:

1. Bachelor's degree (or Master) in Mechanical engineering, Civil engineering, Materials science, or relevant fields.

We are looking for self-motivated and enthusiastic students with a degree in mechanical or materials engineering. Students with following backgrounds are strongly recommended to apply:

Postdoc positions are available in Dr Min Luo’s group (https://person.zju.edu.cn/en/minluo) at the Ocean College of Zhejiang University, China (ranked #45 in QS Global World Rankings 2022). Those holding a PhD degree in the areas of Computational Fluid Mechanics and Civil/Hydraulic/Ocean Engineering are welcome to apply.

1.    Project description

In this project, the research fellow is expected to work on the K&C concrete model in LS-DYNA. Focusing on normal strength concretes of ~45 to 60 MPa compressive strengths, the research fellow has to calibrate the material parameters against experimental data, and to establish all modelling inputs for simulating the response of concrete structures against very high impact loading conditions. The numerical predictions will be benchmarked against experimental data.

The Laboratory for Fluid-Structure Interaction (LIFE) (http://labfsi.com/) of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV) (www.urv.cat) in Tarragona (Spain), is looking for an enthusiastic research student with a strong interest in fluid dynamics and fluid-structure interactions. Successful candidates will join a small but very active multidisciplinary team, working in several fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems.
