PhD position in Computational Fracture Mechanics of porous media at Imperial College London (UK applicants only)

Submitted by Emilio Martíne… on Wed, 10/23/2019 - 08:05

Applications are invited for a PhD scholarship at Imperial College London. The work will be conducted in close collaboration with the University of Cambridge, with the student being supervised by Dr Emilio Martínez Pañeda (main supervisor), Prof Catherine O'Sullivan (Imperial College) and Prof Norman Fleck FRS FREng (University of Cambridge).

The project aims at developing new theoretical and computational micromechanics-based models for rocks and porous media. More details of the project are given here:

1 postdoctoral position

fracture

computational mechanics

I have an opening for a two-year postdoctoral fellowship at Duke University. The project is a collaboration with experimentalists. and concerns problems in which fractures are driven by fluid flow through porous media.

The ideal candidate will have some background in finite element methods and mechanics, nonlinear coupled field problems, C++, and high-performance computing. Experience with fracture mechanics is useful but not required.

I hope some of you will find this work interesting. We present a new Weibull framework for cleavage fracture that incorporates strain gradient plasticity and can estimate the three parameters of Weibull-type models without any prior assumptions. A post-print is available at www.empaneda.com
