UC Berkeley: Two Active Searches for Tenure-Track Hires in Mechanical Engineering

Submitted by oliver oreilly on

Dear Colleague,

I would be most grateful if you could advertise and promote the exciting news that the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UC Berkeley is currently seeking applications for a pair of tenure-track faculty positions: 

PhD positions: Data-driven approaches in solid mechanics

Submitted by Laura De Lorenzis on

The Computational Mechanics Group in the Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering of ETH Zurich is seeking two doctoral students for a project on data-driven approaches in solid mechanics. The positions are funded by a recently awarded SNF Grant of Prof. Laura De Lorenzis.

Abstract

How Can Machine Learning Help Composites Modeling?

Submitted by Wenbin Yu on

Our views on how one can leverage machine learning techniques to help constitutive modeling of composite materials are summarized in this paper

Xin Liu, Su Tian, Fei Tao and Wenbin Yu, A review of artificial neural networks in the constitutive modeling of composite materials, Composites Part B, vol. 224, 2021,109152.

4 year PhD scholarship available at the BioEngineering lab - University of Seville (Spain)

Submitted by jsanz on

Summary of the project: The main goal of the research project is to develop an in vivo, ex vivo and in silico platform to provide an enhanced understanding of changes in bone mechanobiology during osteoporotic distraction osteogenesis and fracture healing.

Research Fellowship in Engineering - Cambridge

Submitted by Hilde F on

The Maudslay-Butler Research Fellowship in Engineering was established to encourage the highest quality of research in any area of Engineering. The Research Fellow will develop and benefit from close links with the University’s Department of Engineering. The Maudslay Trust, which supports the Research Fellowship, commemorates Henry Maudslay, a pioneering mechanical engineer.  We welcome applications from any candidates who have recently completed a Ph.D. or who will be expected to complete their Ph.D.
