I am looking for a PhD candidate who will be sponsered by my Institute to work in the area of fracture mechanics.
ABAQUS experience would be an advantage and concepts in fracture mechanics and finite elements will be desirable.
If you are interested to work in this area at Indian Institute of Technology Ropar in Metallurgical and Materials Engg. department, please dont hesitate to contact me at abhishek.tiwari [at] iitrpr.ac.in
JOB DESCRIPTION
IHPC is seeking a highly motivated research scientist to conduct research in computational thermal analysis for composite materials. The project focuses on developing a numerical simulation platform for polymer matrix composite thermal simulation under various external heat load and conduct optimization for industrial design purpose.
The successful candidate will be required to aid the work in the following fields:
One position for a PhD Student in Experimental Biomechanics for 3 years; expected from April 15, 2021 at the Institute of Biomechanics in Graz, Austria.
Acceptance conditions: M.Sc. in (Bio)mechanical Engineering, Electrical engineering, Physics or related field and experience with desire to pursue a PhD degree.
Intro
Please share this with undergraduate students interested in summer research opportunities.
There is a Ph.D. opening in my research group in the Mechanical Engineering department at the University of Houston to be filled the fall semester of 2021.
The research topic is modeling the deformation and fracture response of dissipative material systems.
Two PhD positions are available within the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Texas at San Antonio for Summer or Fall 2021 in the area of injury biomechanics research focused on traumatic brain injury and computational modeling.
The overall goal of this research, headed by Dr. Marzieh Memar, is to integrate computational and experimental techniques to unfold mechanisms underlying traumatic brain injury (TBI).
HetSys is a recently established EPSRC-supported Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) which trains people to challenge current state-of-the-art in computational modelling of heterogeneous, real-world systems across a range of research themes which this year include nanoscale devices, superalloys, laser-plasma interactions etc and future medicines.
We are looking for a highly motivated PhD student to work on Computational Solid Mechanics, with focus on Cell Adhesion and Mechanobiology. The project is in collaboration with experimental biologists and biophysicists located at UBC and other international laboratories. It will involve the use analytical tools in Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics (e.g. Statistical Mechanics), and computational tools such as Finite Element Analysis. The goal will be to derive important scaling laws to understand the mechanical behavior of Biological Cells under different processes such as Motility, Differentiation and Mitosis.
