Postdoc position in cutting edge optimization for metal machining, Aarhus University, Denmark
Applications are invited for a 2.5-year postdoctoral position at Aarhus University, Denmark. The focus of the project will be on shape optimization of cutting edge for improving milling process of stainless steel. This research opportunity broadly involves the development of physics-based computational approaches and systematic simulations for understanding the micromechanics of material removal from metallic surfaces. This project is part of a big Grand Solution industrial project, which is funded by the Innovation Fund Denmark.
Research Assistant in Computational Mechanics at TU Darmstadt
The newly established group for Cyber-physical Simulation at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at TU Darmstadt in Germany is offering a position for a Research Assistant in Computational Mechanics. Potential research areas include finite element methods, isogeometric analysis, design optimization, multi-scale & multi-physics, data-driven methods and additive manufacturing applications.
Internship Positions in Schlumberger-Doll Research in Cambridge MA
Please note that a new version of the internship job description focusing on computation mechanics, with preferred skills defined, is now attached. The earlier job description (still attached as before), with focus on robotics, is still relavant. We have both positions available to fill for 2019.
We thank all students who have submitted their applications. They are currently under review. Both positions are still open as of now. - Tianxiang, Jan 14, 2019

Gaume at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne (EPFL, Switzerland) invites applications by highly motivated, committed, and talented students/researchers for 2 PhD and 1 PostDoc positions in the field of Computational Mechanics for Snow and Avalanche Modeling.
Postdoc in computational mechanics & topology optimization at SUTD in Singapore
We invite applications for fully funded Postdoctoral Research Fellow positions with the Bio-inspired Robotics & Design Laboratory (http://brd.sutd.edu.sg) at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD).
The project will investigate modelling, simulation and optimisation of soft robots and structures using computational mechanics. Research areas include: structural and morphological optimisation and multi-physics optimisation.
Special Issue on GBCs in CAGD
In 2019, Elsevier CAGD will be publishing a special issue on ``Generalized Barycentric Coordinates,'' edited by Michael S. Floater (University of Oslo), Kai Hormann (University of Lugano), and myself.
If you expect to have any new contribution in this area, then please do consider submitting a paper to this special issue.
All the details about the special issue can be found in the attached ``Call for Papers.''
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
Best wishes,

Tenure-track faculty position in computational mechanics at the University of Vermont (USA)
The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Vermont invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in Mechanical Engineering at the Assistant Professor level for a Fall 2019 start date. Candidates are expected to hold a baccalaureate degree and a doctorate in mechanical engineering or a closely related field.
PhD and Postdoc Positions in computational poromechanics at Columbia University
I am seeking a Ph.D. student and/or postdoc associate for a number of projects related to high-strain-rate plasticity and phase-transition of porous media.
Candidates with demonstrated experience in computational mechanics, poromechanics, and implementation of codes in C++ and python are strongly preferred. Basic understanding of tensor calculus and continuum mechanics is required for the Ph.D. position. Students with track-records of academic achievements are encouraged to apply.
