Two PhD positions on experimental and computational multiscale mechanics at Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands

Submitted by Johan_Hoefnagels on

Our Mechanics of Materials Group at Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands has two openings for talented PhD students in the field of multiscale mechanics of materials. They are part of a European Union funded project on multiscale methods for advanced materials. One opening is on the development of a fundamentally new multiscale approach towards material modelling and the other aims to integrate this approach with experimental methods.

Postdoctoral Research/PhD Studies on Multiscale Material Modeling at the Technion

Submitted by Dan Mordehai on

The Nanomechanics Simulations Laboratory at the Mechanical
Engineering Department, Technion, Israel, is recruiting Postdoctoral
researchers and/or PhD candidates in the area of modeling the plastic deformation of metallic specimens at the nanoscale.
The research involves performing simulations at various scales
(Molecular Dynamics, Dislocation Dynamics and Finite Elements Analysis).
We are looking for highly motivated applicants, who are familiar with
modeling mechanical properties. Applicants with a strong background in

International Workshop 'Modeling and development of nanostructured materials for biomedical applications',

Submitted by Leon Mishnaevsky on

OBJECTIVES AND TOPICS

          Development of
nanoengineering technologies and creation of nanomaterials opened new
perspectives for a number of areas of industry and everyday life. These
materials demonstrate increased strength, toughness, biocompatibility,
and can ensure higher service properties, reliability and lifetime of
devices and systems.

Ashby PhD Scholarship in the Mechanics of Materials at Cambridge University, Department of Engineering

Submitted by Helen Gardner on

A fully funded PhD scholarship exists in the area of mechanics of
materials, endowed in honour of Prof M F Ashby. The successful
applicant will have a 1st class degree (and ideally a Masters degree) in
Engineering solid mechanics or in Engineering materials. The precise
topic of the PhD can be fixed after the scholarship has been awarded.
