PHD position

PhD Position on "Thrombus Mechanics and Growth" within the Lead Project
at the Institute of Applied Mechanics
Graz University of Technology, Austria

Brief Description of the Lead Project:
Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) is funding the joint research project “Mechanics,
Modeling and Simulation of Aortic Dissection” as a Lead project of the university. A consortium
of scientists from biomechanical-, civil-, electrical-, and mechanical engineering, computer science,

The Mechanics & Materials Group within ETH Zurich's Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering has several openings for PhD students as well as a postdoctoral scholar. All positions are within the area of multiscale mechanics of solids with a primary focus on theory and simulations but also an experimental PhD thesis. Please see the attached description of the positions as well as requirements for potential candidates and contact information. The positions are open immediately and applications are welcome.

SUSTech (https://www.sustech.edu.cn/en/) is a newly found research university in Shenzhen, China (Shenzhen can be considered as Silicon Valley in China.). Please check out the attached pdf file for the introduction of SUSTech and the PhD scholarship. 

These fully supported PhD positions are available for 2020 Fall semester, it is still in time to apply.  The PhD scholarship is RMB126,700 (Approx. USD18,098)/year, plus a possible performance-based award of RMB20,000 (Approx. USD2,857)/year. 

A PhD position is available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Science at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. The research project is in the multiscale modeling of damage and fracture. Candidates should have a strong background and interests in continuum mechanics and finite elements modeling. Programming experience in Fortran or C++ is a big plus. The starting date for this position is August 2018.
