The Gu Research Group in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley has postdoctoral positions available. The positions will involve developing state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI) techniques and multi-physics modeling approaches to design novel materials with superior properties and functionalities. There are two positions available with the following descriptions and skills:
We are inviting applications for a postdoctoral research associate position to work on an exciting project at the intersection of machine learning, computational mechanics, and materials science. The project will accelerate the fundamental understanding of the influence of composition and microstructure on the phase stability and properties of multicomponent materials, and to use such an understanding to optimize their performance in high temperature conditions. The ideal candidate will develop computational modeling technology for materials discovery working w
The Institute of High Performance Computing, part of A*STAR in Singpore, is seeking a talented, motivated researcher to hire with extensive experience in computational mechanics:

The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) has an opening for a fully funded Ph.D. position. The position will start in Spring 2022. Interested candidates should apply as soon as possible.
We have multiple postdoc and PhD positions available in the broad areas of nanomechanics and soft electronics. Please follow the link below if you are interested. Thank you!
We currently have one opening for postdoc position at the Unviersity of Manitoba, Canada in the area of atomistic simulations of the electronic structure and physical properties of metallic systems. The position will investigate the correlation between the electronic structures and the physical properties (e.g., thermodynamics, corrosion/wear, and plasticity, etc.) of metals by using molecular dynamics and density functional theory simulations.
The college of engineering at Boston University has embarked on a bold new strategic plan that will pursue excellence and impact along six convergent and collaborative research themes: (1) Intelligent, Autonomous and Secure Systems, (2) Synthetic Biology, Tissue Engineering and Mechanobiology, (3) Energy, Sustainability and Climate, (4) Materials by Design (5) Photonics and Optical Systems, and (6) Neuroengineering, Neuroinformatics, and Neuroscience.
In our center: “The physics of metal plasticity” we conduct basic science to reveal the physical mechanisms governing the mechanical properties of metals, such as strength and formability. When metals are deformed plastically, dislocations (defects in the crystal lattice) multiply and self-organize in 3D patterns. We have developed a hard X-ray microscope at the European Synchrotron Radiation Source (ESRF) that for the first time allows visualization of how these patterns form.
One Ph.D. research position is available in January 2022 at Iowa State University’s Mechanical Engineering Department in the area of soft tissue biomechanics and biomaterials. The candidates must be a U.S. Citizen or U.S. Permanent Resident/Green Card holder and have earned a B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering, Bioengineering, or a related field. The selected candidate is expected to start no later than June 2022.
Two Ph.D. positions in the area of mechanics of soft materials are available immediately/Fall21/Spring22 at UT Austin. The students can choose to enroll in Engineering Mechanics or Civil, Architectural, and Environmental Engineering. Some background in nonlinear solid mechanics, linear algebra, and numerical methods (finite element method and/or isogeometric analysis) is preferable, but not required!
