Two Postdoc positions at Northeastern: Cellular structures, Soft Matter, and Biomimetic materials and structures

Two postdoctoral fellow positions at Northeastern University are available immediately, focused on the analysis of the nonlinear behavior of structures and soft matter using computational mechanics and the development and analysis of active cellular structures, and biomimetic materials. The research will be carried out at the High Performance Materials and Structures Laboratory (http://www.hpmsl.neu.edu/).

 A Ph.D. in mechanical engineering or materials science, and in particular experience with computational mechanics and finite element method, is required. Good written and verbal communication skills and organizational talents are expected. Please send a CV, a brief summary of research interests and skills, three representative publications, and the names, affiliations, phone numbers, and email addresses of three references to Dr. Ashkan Vaziri (Vaziri@coe.neu.edu). Evaluation of candidates will begin immediately and will continue until the opening is filled. This position is available immediately. For any questions, please contact Ashkan Vaziri (contact information below).
