A PhD position is open for Spring 2018 in Advanced Hierarchical Materials by Design Lab at Louisiana Tech University on multiscale modeling of metamaterials. The candidates must have earned a degree in Mechanical Engineering or related fields (applicants with a MSc will be given priority) and have a solid background in theoretical and computational mechanics. Having knowledge of continuum mechanics, finite element modeling, and a programming language is a plus.

Tensile Testing: What is it?

The University of Bristol (UK) and the China Scholarship Council are jointly offering many full PhD Scholarships in all disciplines. The application deadline is 15 January 2018.

Dear Colleague,

As the co-organisers of the minisymposium ‘Reduced Order Techniques for Modelling the Buckling and Postbuckling Behaviour of Lightweight Structures’ in the 13th World Conference in Computational Mechanics (WCCMXIII http://www.wccm2018.org/ ), Carol Featherston, David Kennedy, Zhangming Wu would like to invite you to present a paper.

The conference will be held in New York on the 22nd-27th July 2018 at the Marriott Marquis on Broadway.

There is one open Ph.D. student position fully funded in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Villanova University. The position starts Fall 2018. The successful applicant will work with Dr. David Cereceda in the Multiscale Modeling and Machine Learning (M3L) Laboratory on interdisciplinary research topics that involve Computational Mechanics, Multiscale Modeling of Materials and Machine Learning.

Two funded PhD positions for 4 years are available in the composites group at Ghent University in Belgium. Both are focussed on computational mechanics of composites, in the framework of multi-scale modelling.
