Dear Colleagues,

I am looking for a potential postdoctoral fellow of any nationality to work at Microsolidics Group, IIT Guwahati in the area of micromechanics and homogenization of fibrous composites/ multiscale modeling of composites. 

There is a funding opportunity from the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, India limited to 2 years which is received by the candidate directly. The advertisement link is here.

Deadline: 08.10.2023, 17:00 hrs IST

I would like to share our recent paper "Delayed detached eddy simulation-based aerothermoelastic analysis of deployable control fin in supersonic and hypersonic flows" published in Physics of Fluids. In this paper we study the stability and mechanics of a deployable control fin in supersonic and hypersonic flows accounting for fluid-structure interactions and joint freeplay nonlinearity. 

The Biomechanics Lab in the Joint Department of Biomedical Engineering at Marquette University and Medical College of Wisconsin is recruiting Postdoctoral Research Associates to work on biomechanics and biomedical engineering research. The successful candidates will work on and contribute to ongoing research that solves problems related to the cardiovascular and brain by developing multiscale/multiphysics computational models as well as publish peer-reviewed journal papers.

 One fully funded Ph.D. position will be available either in Spring or Fall of 2024 at the Computational Soft Matter Lab, situated at the New Jersey Institute of Technology ((https://mie.njit.edu/). The  primary goal of this research project is to employ multiscale modeling and innovative simulation methods to explore the interactions of soft materials with interfaces and surfaces.

We investigate the fluid-elastic instability of a square tube bundle subject to two-phase cross-flow. A dimensional analysis is carried out, leading to a new criterion of instability. This criterion establishes a direct link with the instability thresholds in single-phase flows. In parallel to the dimensional analysis, experimental work is carried out to i) determine the instability thresholds in single-phase flows (new relation between the Scruton, Stokes and Reynolds number), ii) to test the validity of the two-phase flow instability criterion, derived from the dimensional analysis.
