The Advanced Interface Design for Extremes (AIDE) Laboratory, led by Dr. Kasra Momeni, invites applications for a one-year Postdoctoral Research Associate position in computational materials science. The anticipated start date is Fall 2026 or January 2027, depending on the candidate's availability.
I wrote a Windows tool for postprocessing finite-element results: figures, animations, and reproducible scenes from EnSight Gold, VTK, ParaView, and STL files.
Everything it draws is vector-based — contours, Gouraud shading, PDF export included. No bitmaps on sight.
Multi-step transient analyses, tensor fields, and symmetry replication are supported.
Free, self-contained, documented:

The Department of Food Science, Aarhus University, invites applications for a two-year postdoc position in plant physiology and molecular biology of EV-based plant-microbe communication. The position is part of the EU-funded EVOLVE project and focuses on controlled-environment biological testing of extracellular vesicles as a non-GMO platform for steering plant performance and plant-microbe interactions.
This is a two-year fixed-term postdoc position from 1 November 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter.

We are pleased to announce research and PhD opportunities in Bioinspired Engineering and Technologies, with a particular emphasis on green energy production and robotics.
Our group is currently working on several challenging and high-impact areas, including:
#1. Bio-signal-based realistic control of prosthetics for rehabilitation
#2. Bio-inspired wind turbine blade design for energy harvesting from moving vehicles
#3. Research on e-VTOL systems
#4. Development of UUVs for ocean plastic cleaning
A variational minimum principle for linear elastodynamics of a possibly heterogeneous material without a stored energy function is developed. It involves a change of variables to dual fields, and results in a degenerate elliptic Euler-Lagrange system, even when the primal elastodynamics is hyperbolic. Uniqueness assertions for the dual dynamic and static problems and implications of the degenerate ellipticity are sketched. Some implications pertaining to heterogeneous materials and ones with indefinite elastic moduli are discussed.
We are pleased to share our recent JMPS paper, “Graph-Field Framework for Fracture Mechanics of Architected Lattice Materials.” (link: 10.1016/j.jmps.2026.106729)
The University of Vermont (UVM) invites applications for an immediate, fully funded Ph.D. position to work with Professor Jihong A. Ma. The position focuses on cutting-edge research in computational organic chemistry and polymer science, with an emphasis on developing fundamental, predictive understanding of structure–property relationships in organic molecules and polymeric materials.
