One Postdoctoral/Research Scientist Position in Geometric Modeling and Mesh Generation
A position of postdoctoral fellow or research scientist is available immediately in the group
of Jessica Zhang at Department of Mechanical Engineering, Carnegie Mellon University.
We are looking for someone with strong software design and development skills coupled
Postdoctoral Position at Penn State University in Multiscale Computational Dynamics
We have an immediate opening in the Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics for a postdoctoral research associate in multiscale modeling and computational mechanics. The focus of this position is on the modeling, simulation, and analysis of the nonlinear evolution of coupled macro/microstructure in failure processes, with an emphasis toward structural health monitoring. Coupled-field models using continuum damage variables will be used to study the fundamental spatiotemporal features of damage evolution, particularly regarding the nature and origin of unpredictability in damage processes. The candidate must have a solid general background in theoretical mechanics and dynamics, and be familiar with nonlinear finite element analysis
Physics programmer position in Boston
The person in this position will be responsible for developing finite element-based soft tissue representations that supportreal-time interaction with surgical tools. The successful candidate should befamiliar with the extensive prior work in the field of surgical simulationincluding finite element formulations (both traditional nonlinear approaches aswell as various real-time approximations), real-time collision detection andresponse between rigid and deformable objects, multi-processor/coreimplementations, and integration with haptics devices.
Postdoc Position available at Georgia Tech
A postdoc position is available immediately in the School of Mechanical Engineering at Gerogia Tech. Interested persons with atomistic/molecular level simulation of metal/polymer interfaces are invited to contact Jianmin Qu at jq [at] gatech.edu (jq[at]gatech[dot]edu)
Two postdoctoral positions available at Johns Hopkins University
I am looking for two postdocs in the analytical and computational modeling areas. One position will focus on the theoretical and computational modeling of microstructure-modulated failure processes, with an emphasis on nanocrystalline materials. The other will focus on hypervelocity impact fragmentation problems, including planetary scale impact and fragmentation. The latter position is available immediately, and the former is available as of June 1, 2008.
Graduate student position at Royal Institute of Technology (KTH)
See http://www.hallf.kth.se/NYAJOBB/nyajobb_en.html
The position is at the Department of Solid Mechanics, KTH . The theme of the graduate student project is "Crack growth in rubber and rubber like materials".
Two faculty positions in computational and experimental mechanics at Columbia University
Columbia University
Department of Civil Engineering and Engineering Mechanics
The Department of Civil Engineering and Engineering Mechanics invites applications for TWO tenure-track faculty positions to support a Department initiative in Sustainable Engineering. Qualified individuals are sought with expertise in either:
(1) Computational mechanics - with an emphasis on large-scale computing applied to multi-scale, multi-phase modeling of materials (from nano- to macro-scale), and/or mechanics and materials challenges in energy and/or the environment.
Faculty Position in Structural Engineering at EPFL
EPFL continues to strengthen its School of Architecture, Civil and Environmental Engineering (ENAC). We are recruiting an assistant professor (tenure track) in structural engineering. In special cases, a senior faculty appointment could be considered. We are seeking exceptional candidates with a strong interest in teaching and an outstanding record of scientific accomplishments.
