Postdoctoral position on experimental mechanics at University of Colorado Boulder

Submitted by Francisco Lope… on

A postdoctoral position is available immediately to work on a DARPA funded project as a member of the research groups of Prof. Francisco Lopez Jimenez and Prof. David Marshall, at the University of Colorado Boulder. The focus of the project is the development of a novel experimental protocol to accelerate the time required to characterize new metal alloys. The research will be primarily experimental, with close collaboration with researchers at Teledyne Scientific Company, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and University of Miami.

Submitted by mahditaiebat on

Two postdoctoral positions are available in the Theoretical & Applied Geomechanics research group at the University of British Columbia. Both positions offer a two-year appointment with the possibility of a contract extension. Successful candidates will benefit from exposure to a dynamic international research environment and opportunities for various areas of professional development.

 

Position 1 Description

Open Postdoc on computational methods to process experimental data

Submitted by Andrew J. Gross on

A Postdoctoral Fellow is sought to fill an immediate opening in the Gross Materials Lab at the University of South Carolina to work on a DARPA funded project. The postdoc will have the opportunity to attend regular meetings with DARPA and other DOD program managers. The research is focused on extracting yield surfaces from data rich full-field experimental information by solving an inverse problem. This research will be primarily computational and will integrate closely with a graduate student conducting experiments.

Postdoc (2 years) on Machine learning techniques for interpretation of vibrational data

Submitted by wvpaepeg on

Additive manufacturing of metal alloys yields great potential for the aerospace industry (and others) as it allows the generation of geometrically complex structures with high specific strength, low density and high corrosion resistance. For example, General Electric has demonstrated the possibility of printing titanium fuel injectors for their LEAP engine, Boeing incorporated more than 300 printed parts in their 777X airplane … For such critical applications, the structural quality of printed parts is of utmost importance. Small deviations in print conditions, e.g.

Postdoc (1.5 years) on topology optimization of electrical machines

Submitted by wvpaepeg on

Over the past years, UGent-MMS has developed a stand-alone topology optimization code for additive manufacturing applications. The topology optimization software can deal with thermo-mechanical coupled problems, combined with multi-material selection. Such features are not available in any commercial topology optimization code.
The code can also deal with large industrial optimization problems, with millions degrees of freedom in three-dimensional finite element models.
