Postdoc or PhD position - Multiscale Modeling of Polymer-Matrix-Composites

At the chair of Computational Mechanics (chair Prof. T. Rabczuk) at the Bauhaus University Weimar, there is 

1 open position for PhD-student or Post-Doc

for a maximum period of 3 years. The applicant is supposed to work in an international team and should suppose to collaborate with PhD-students and Post-Docs. In this project, effective coarse-graining methods for polymers and polymer-matrix composites should be devised and implemented in our in-house code.

Requirements

• PhD or M.Sc. in Computational Physics, Applied Mathematics, Mechanical Engineering or Civil Engineering
• Excellent knowledge in Computational Methods (in particular FEM), Mechanics and Applied Mathematics
• Experience on one or more of the following topics: Experience in CG-MD and MD modeling, Computational modeling of polymers and/or polymer-matrix composites, multiscale modeling (FE^2, BDM, Arlequin method, BSM, QCM, etc.).
• Excellent coding skills (C/C++ or Fortran)

The salary is according to TV-L East E13 BBesG (around 2200-2500 Euro/month depending on family status).

Please send your application including CV, list of publications and transcripts (for PhD-students only) by email to timon.rabczuk@uni-weimar.de.
