&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;I submitted my PhD Thesis in the area of&lt;br /&gt;
Functionally graded coating of ceramic and ceramic-composite coatings, which&lt;br /&gt;
involves designing, phase analysis, bond strength, mechanical and physical&lt;br /&gt;
properties. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;To involve myself in improving sound technical&lt;br /&gt;
knowledge and good experimental exposure I am looking for an opening for post&lt;br /&gt;
doctorate fellow. If you can offer me the experimental part , I will be so happy to&lt;br /&gt;
work in the area. Regarding the finite element part i am not having hands of experence , but i have attened theory and laboratory&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;courses. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

 <title>Postdoc needed urgently at Oxford</title>
 <link>http://www.imechanica.org/node/7035</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Postdoctoral Research Associate&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;University of Oxford&lt;/strong&gt; - Department of Engineering Science    	&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Grade 7: Salary &amp;pound;28,839 - &amp;pound;35,469 p.a.&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
We are seeking a well-organised and motivated individual to work on&lt;br /&gt;
an EPSRC/Dstl funded research project, aimed at developing novel&lt;br /&gt;
methodologies for numerical simulation of deformation and failure of&lt;br /&gt;
composite materials at multiple length scales in impact engineering of&lt;br /&gt;
marine structures. Based at Engineering Science, Parks Road, Oxford&lt;br /&gt;
this post is available immediately for three years.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
You will be responsible for the development of deterministic and&lt;br /&gt;
stochastic modelling techniques for predictive modelling of the&lt;br /&gt;
response of composite materials to impact loading, the development of&lt;br /&gt;
supporting experimental techniques, the writing of reports and journal&lt;br /&gt;
publications and the production of documented software.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;It is essential that you have:&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A doctorate (or be very near to completion) in engineering,&lt;br /&gt;
	materials science, mathematics, physics or a related discipline; or,&lt;br /&gt;
	alternatively, have a good first degree and significant relevant&lt;br /&gt;
	industrial experience. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Proven skills in novel research. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Expertise in the finite element method and development of&lt;br /&gt;
	constitutive models for simulation of deformation and failure of&lt;br /&gt;
	engineering materials. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The ability to communicate scientific ideas to an expert audience,&lt;br /&gt;
	both orally and in writing (including research papers for journals).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Further expertise in the development of constitutive models for&lt;br /&gt;
simulation of deformation and failure of composite materials,&lt;br /&gt;
experience in dealing with impact engineering problems and familiarity&lt;br /&gt;
with experimental characterisation, including microscopic&lt;br /&gt;
characterisation of materials, are desirable.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
An application pack may be obtained by telephoning 01865 273013 or by email to &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:administrator@eng.ox.ac.uk&quot;&gt;administrator@eng.ox.ac.uk&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;strong&gt;Please quote reference DF09071 in all correspondence. The closing date for applications is noon on Wednesday 11 November 2009&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
