Two PhD positions on computational and experimental multiscale mechanics at Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands

Submitted by RonPeerlings on

Our Mechanics of Materials Group at Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands has two openings for talented PhD students in the field of multiscale mechanics of materials. They are part of a European Union funded project on multiscale methods for advanced materials. One opening is onthe development of a fundamentally new multiscale approach towards material modelling and the other aims to integrate this approach with experimental methods.

Faculty Position in Solid Mechanics at UIUC

Submitted by Harley T. Johnson on

The Department of Mechanical Science and Engineering (MechSE) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign invites applications for faculty positions at all levels in Solid Mechanics, broadly defined, with particular emphasis on research that is experimental in nature.  MechSE at Illinois has a strong tradition in solid mechanics, and offers a BS degree in Engineering Mechanics and MS/PhD programs in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, as well as BS, MS, and PhD degrees in Mechanical Engineering.

Post-doctoral position at the University of Texas at Austin

Submitted by Ravi-Chandar on

The
Center for Mechanics of Solids, Structures and Materials has immediate openings
for two post-doctoral positions, dealing with (i) laboratory experiments on hydraulic
fracture and (ii) ductile failure in metals. The primary focus in both
investigations is on performing laboratory experiments that are then followed
by appropriate analyses. Candidates with a strong background in solid mechanics
and experience in experimental solid mechanics are encouraged to contact Professor
