The work involves working independently and collaboratively on: Identifying processing parameters that will optimize the properties of the bi-metallic joint, developing a material constitutive model for impact loading conditions, developing an experimentally validated numerical model the can be used to predict the joint performance under impact loading conditions, and developing design and processing guidelines for the bimetallic joints.

 One PhD student position is available at Monash University, Sunway Campus in Malaysia with the leadership of Prof A.K Soh. 

 We expect students with the knowledge and experience in at least two or more of the following skills:



1. nano-/micro-mechanics.

2. computational mechanics.

3. fabrication and characterization of advanced materials, e.g.nano-thin-films, nano-wire arrays, functional materials, etc.

4. strong physics/chemistry knowledge, e.g., quantum mechanics.
