The Department of Aerospace Engineering, in the College of Engineering at Iowa State University, invites applications for a tenure-track/tenured faculty position in the area of Aerospace Structural Mechanics and Materials, involving either a modeling, computational or experimental focus. Exceptional candidates with commensurate experience and proven track record will be considered for the Associate or Full Professor ranks.

I am looking for a research fellow (pre/post-doc) to join my group at Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna (Pisa, Italy) to work on the ERC project ALPS - AI-based Learning for Physical Simulation.

Dear mechanicians,

I am looking for students interested in doing a Ph.D. or M.A.Sc. (two Ph.D. students and one M.A.Sc. student). The positions are funded by NSERC and by several industrial partners. Students from everywhere can apply (there is no restriction on nationality). The positions are going to be related to:

1- Simulation of dynamic fracture of Alumina under high-strain rate. 

2- Spall and dynamic fracture modeling and testing of materials. 

3- Device failure modes under blast and impact conditions. 

Dear mechanicians,

I am posting this on behalf of my friend and colleague, Prof. Shmuel. If interested, please contact him directly (meshmuel [at] technion.ac.il).

Best regards,

Mauricio 

Description:

A fully-funded Ph.D./postdoctoral position in the field of data-driven modeling of engineering materials is available at the Department of Mechanics, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague. The position will be supervised by Dr. Anna Kučerová and will involve close collaboration with the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology.

The Grytz Lab seeks a Post-doctoral fellow for imaging-informed computational modeling of the eye. This position is funded from a recently awarded NIH/NEI R01 grant. The candidate will participate in developing personalized finite element models that combine patient-specific morphology and biomechanical property inputs from in vivo imaging using optical coherence tomography to advance personalized medicine in the eye. 

Griffith University (Gold Coast, Australia) have PhD scholarships available for suitably qualified candidates. For the next competitive intake, we are looking to recommend two PhD candidates to work on the development of lightweight fibre-reinforced composite materials. We are particularly interested to hear from (and preference will be given to) applicants with some experience in the area of design, manufacture and testing (destructive or non-destructive) of composites, and/or machine learning (ML) techniques applied to engineering problems.

PhD positions are available within the Department of Biomedical Engineering or the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas at San Antonio in the area of experimental impact biomechanics research focusing on material system design and injury protection technologies. The PhD student will be working as part of a team exploring various aspects of both impact biomechanics, sensors, and injury protection design.
