PhD positions in Fracture Mechanics at IIT Delhi

Submitted by gsingh87 on

Deadline: 5th April 2023 !

I am looking to admit at least two PhD students in the broad area of Fracture Mechanics at the Department of Applied Mechanics, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi.

The problems we work on are fundamental in nature and utilize mathematics, atomistic simulations and experiments. More details may be found at https://web.iitd.ac.in/~gsingh/

Application deadline is 5th April 2023. A background in solid mechanics is essential.

Postdoctoral Opportunity at UT Austin

Submitted by Rui Huang on

Professors Kenneth Liechti and Rui Huang in the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics at the University of Texas Austin have an opening for a Postdoctoral Fellow to engage in a funded project in the area of multilayered van der Waals materials. Although the project involves both experiments and modeling, the thrust of this position will be experimental. Accordingly, we seek a creative individual who has prior experience in conducting nanomechanical experiments with 2D materials.

PhD position at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) in solid mechanics and fracture mechanics of composite materials

Submitted by Bent F. Sørensen on

We have an open position as a PhD student in the area of fracture mechanics of fibre composites. The focus of the position is to develop element test specimens, i.e., test specimens that are purposely-designed with the aim of checking the accuracy of model predictions of damage evolution (two or more damage types) in composite structures subjected to static and cyclic loading

Post-doctoral position at LGCGM (INSA-Rennes) and IRDL (UBS-Lorient)

Submitted by S. Thuillier on

This study is dedicated to the characterization and modelling of the mechanical behavior of a titanium alloy under complex strain paths representative of incremental forming. A combined experimental and numerical approach is to be developed. A commercial alloy in sheet form is considered (cf. attached file for a full description).

PhD position in computational solid mechanics

Submitted by Arttu Polojärvi on

Aalto University (Finland), Department of Mechanical Engineering, is looking for a doctoral student for a study on the breakage and fragmentation of ice blocks under compressive loads. The fragmentation process is complicated and requires the use of novel modelling methods that can be used reliably on different scales. In addition to the computational work, we will perform experiments on this topic. We start the work using our inhouse FEM-DEM code (other approaches can be also used), while the experiments will be performed in the cold room of our department.

Post doc position in computational solid mechanics

Submitted by Arttu Polojärvi on

We in Aalto Univeristy (Finland), Department of Mechanical Engineering, look for a post doc to join our group for a study on the breakage and fragmentation of ice blocks under compressive loads. The fragmentation process is complicated and requires the use of novel experiments and numerical models, and in this research, you will be working on both. The unique experiments on this topic will be performed in the cold room of the department.  Numerical modelling will be done on a variety of scales.
