Post doctoral position in geomechanics at CSIRO Petroleum, Melbourne, Australia
https://recruitment.csiro.au/asp/job_details.asp?RefNo=2007%2F1216
The post doctoral fellow will be engaged in research on the mechanics of hydraulic fracturing of rock. The primary aim of this project is to investigate, using a novel approach for experimentation spanning laboratory and field scales, the effect of fracture size on the energy required for fracture extension in rock.
Recruiting PhD students to study Solid Mechanics at Harvard
Each year, several new students begin their studies of Solid Mechanics for PhD degrees at Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. The students come from all over the world. We have no constraint on where they come from.

Rowland Junior Fellowship at Harvard University (30 Nov Deadline)
I am writing to draw your attention to our annual solicitation for applications to Rowland Junior Fellows Program, which may be of interest to your graduate students and postdoctoral fellows.
We have currently eight Rowland Junior Fellows at the Institute. As a look at our website will tell you (http://rowland.harvard.edu), they work on a broad range of topics, from condensed matter physics to plant physiology.
Openings for New Ph.D. Students on Composite Materials and Failure Mechanics at Vanderbilt University, USA
New students may start from January 2008 if the graduate students have previous research experience in solid mechanics (e.g., nano/micro-mechanics, computational mechanics) or material engineering (MD simulation, mechanical behaviors). Students will have the opportunities to conduct balanced experimental and computational work on the durabilty and impact failure of marine composite materials; failure and material designs of nanocomposite materials; or rehabilitation of infrastructure materials using composites and other materials. An MS degree is required.

Opening for new Ph.D. students in the computational mechanics group, University of Iowa
The computational mechanics group at The University of Iowa, led by Professor S. Rahman, is looking for new Ph.D. students, who are capable of and interested in performing high-quality graduate research in stochastic dynamics and want to pursue academic/research career afterwards. The research, supported by NSF and others, entails developing new decomposition methods for solving general random eigenvalue problems encountered in engineering and sciences. The topic covers dynamics (mechanics), stochastics, and computational methods.
