Hello,

My name is Nguyen Vinh Phu, a PhD student at Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands. I have been working with Prof. Bert Sluys on a project named "Coarse graining of failure in heterogeneous solids" since July 2007. I am finishing my work and therefore seeking for a postdoctoral position starting after July 2011.

My expertise in computational solid mechanics includes

(1) Finite elements, extended finite elements and meshless methods.

The Departement of Aerospace Engineering at Texas A&M University

is seeking to fill two positions this year. One position is in the area of

aerospace materials. Details about the position and the application process may be found in the attached file.



As part of its Vision 2020, developed under the leadership of former President

Robert Gates, Texas A&M University started a few years ago an

unprecedented hiring initiative. This has lead to over 400 new positions

Open Postdoctoral Position in In-situ Transmission Electron Microscopy
