PostDoc (for 6 years, to fill this year)

Requirements: PhD in (Computational) Mechanics, Biomedical Engineering or a related field; the candidate should have excellent verbal and written communication skills, a strong academic and publication record, and the abillity to work independently.

Activities: To teach two autonomous classes per year (Mechanics for Biomedical Engineers, Computational Biomechanics); research to be performed on an international level within the field of "Cardiovascular Solid Mechanics"; to be interested in a habilitation.

Applications are invited for two
postdoctoral research associate positions for
a project funded by the Boeing Co., USA, which is being executed jointly by the
Mechanical Engineering and Chemistry Departments of Indian Institute of
Technology Kanpur. The project involves performing extensive large scale
ab-initio and Molecular Dynamic computations on certain high performance polymers
with a view to understanding their mechanical properties. The research groups
involved in the project have excellent computational facilities for carrying
out these computations. Moreover, both groups have extensive research

Postdoctoral Research Position

Heriot-Watt University (Edinburgh, UK) -School of Engineering and Physical Sciences

Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in hydro-fracturing (fracking) is
available immediately at Masdar Institute of Science and Technology in Abu
Dhabi in United Arab Emirates. Masdar Institute is established in collaboration
with Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The research project focuses on
using advanced computational fracture and damage mechanics for simulating
hydro-fracturing of rocks in hydrocarbon fields. The candidate is expected to
have a PhD in the field of geomechanics, or civil engineering with solid
knowledge of hydraulic fracture mechanics and excellent theoretical and
