Postdoctoral Opportunity at UT Austin

Submitted by Rui Huang on Thu, 01/12/2023 - 22:50

Professors Kenneth Liechti and Rui Huang in the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics at the University of Texas Austin have an opening for a Postdoctoral Fellow to engage in a funded project in the area of multilayered van der Waals materials. Although the project involves both experiments and modeling, the thrust of this position will be experimental. Accordingly, we seek a creative individual who has prior experience in conducting nanomechanical experiments with 2D materials.

Postdoc Position in Computational Nanomechanics

Submitted by Harold S. Park on Fri, 09/11/2020 - 17:40

I am looking to recruit a highly motivated and independent postdoctoral researcher to study, via the development of new computational methodologies, the deformation mechanisms in crystalline nanostructures. The specific emphasis is on predicting the plasticity at timescales that far exceed those possible in classical atomistic simulations, and verifying the predictions through collaborations with experimentalists. The position is available as soon as possible for at least a 1.5-year duration, with possible extension to future years depending on the availability of funding.
