CSIRO division of Earth Science and Resource Engineering is seeking a Senior Research Scientist in hydraulic fracturing/geomechanics. The position is located in Melbourne, Australia and the successful candidate will play a leading role in a world class hydraulic fracturing laboratory facility and in a hydraulic fracturing research team that integrates modelling with experimentation at laboratory and field scales.
Enrique Romero (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech, Spain) and Jean-Michel Pereira (Ecole des Ponts ParisTech, France) are organizing a mini-symposium on "Coupled
processes in geomechanics. Bridging theory and experiments"
(MS16) at the 5th Biot Conference on Poromechanics to be held in
Vienna, Austria, July 10-12, 2013.
Read the new themed issue for Géotechnique Letters: "Geomechanics across the scales"
Dr. Mukul Sharma, Professor in Dept. of Petroleum and Geosystems Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin is seeking to fill two Postdoctoral Positions.
Post Doc description:
Soil, as a typical natural material, has very complex behaviour which is very difficult to be accurately modelled. In geotechnical engineering, about half of the accidents are caused by insufficient designs. The soil’s constitutive model is the fundamental issue for modelling and analyzing soil-related engineering systems.
CSIRO division of Earth Science and Resource Engineering is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow to develop a coupled Thermo-Hydro-Chemo-Mechanical (THCM) reservoir model for application to Engineered Geothermal Systems.

Dear all,
My name is Adrien Haxaire. I am currently Associate Professor at LGCIE, INSA Lyon, France, until end of August. I am looking for a
Post-Doc position in geomechanics in Europe.
During my PhD, I developped a thermodynamical model capable of describing coupled THMC phenomena in unsaturated porous media. It was implemented in Cast3M.
I am very interested in chemical reactions in porous media, their modelling and implementation. I am also interested in the field of CO2 sequestration.
A post-doctoral position is available at Ecole des Ponts ParisTech (Paris, France) in Offshore Geomechanics. The theme of this 1 year research fellow position is:
Mechanical behaviour of ocean sediments and offshore geohazards
More information is available at the web page of Navier research department of Ecole des Ponts ParisTech.
Two PhD scholarships, funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science, are currently available in the Department of Geotechnical Engineering and Geosciences at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) (Barcelona, Spain). The PhD positions are associated to the Project “Progressive failure and the reactivation of big landslides: Analysis, prediction and risks (BIG RISK)” with Professor Eduardo Alonso and Professor Jordi Corominas as principal researchers.
