The Glaciology and Geomorphodynamics Group of the Department of Geography is dedicated to basic and applied research in Alpine areas and in the Arctic. The Snow Avalanche Simulation Laboratory of EPFL is leading the application of novel numerical methods to geophysical settings.
A fully funded Ph.D. position is available in the Computational Biomechanics and Solid Mechanics Laboratory at Villanova University. The position is available as early as Spring 2022 until filled. The candidate will work on multiscale computational modeling of bone fracture. Candidates with a strong background and interest in biomechanics, solid mechanics, fracture mechanics, and computational modeling are encouraged to apply.
Two funded Ph.D. positions in the broad area of computational mechanics are available in Dr. Yuan’s research group (https://wp.wpi.edu/yuan/) at the Aerospace Engineering Department at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Self-motivated individuals with research experience/ strong passion in ONE or more of the following areas are strongly encouraged to apply,
We seek candidates with good research experience in computational mechanics, solid mechanics, and plasticity theory. The candidate is to use computational modeling to study the dislocation-mediated microstructure evolution and material behavior in various manufacturing processes.
The desired candidate will have:
· Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering / Solid Mechanics / Material Science
· Solid background in the mechanics of materials, nonlinear continuum materials, dislocation theory of plasticity of metals
Context
As part of a collaborative project between different industrial partners, research center and Universities, the main objective of the post-doctoral position will be to develop methodologies in the context of stochastic simulations.
Papers of interest for this position are available on
Over the last years, UGent-MMS has developed the stand-alone BladeMesher software for generating finite element models of large wind turbine blades. The software reads in the material data and airfoil data of the wind turbine blade, and automatically constructs the geometry and finite element mesh for the blade. In a next step, the nodal and element information of the finite element mesh is written out to an input file for a commercial finite element solver (Abaqus in this case).
