I'm recruiting Ph.D. students (fully funded) to join my research group at Utah State University and work on data-driven multiscale modeling of functional materials. The positions can be started from Fall 2020 or Spring 2021.
Overview
Dr. Xiaoyu Tang’s group in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at Northeastern University has multiple fully funded Ph.D. positions in the area of Fluid Mechanics and Soft Matter. Research in the group focuses on multiphase flow, microfluidics, and active matter, using both experimental and numerical techniques. Selected candidates are expected to start in the Spring or Fall of 2021. Under special cases, a Fall 2020 start date may also be arranged. Visiting students/scholars are always welcome.
Two postdoctoral positions are available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Vancouver Campus. The positions are described below and involve the use of large-scale ab-initio simulations in combination with machine learning models to accelerate materials discovery. The positions are funded for two-years and available in the modelling and simulation group, lead by Prof. Mauricio Ponga.
For my new junior research group "MEiTNER - Multifunctional dielectric elastomer electronics for next generation soft robotics", I am searching for two PhD candidates at TU Dresden. The possitions come with full salary and all German social security.
A postdoctoral position is available in Dr. Zheng Jia’s group in the Department of Engineering Mechanics at Zhejiang University, China.
Description

(2) Supervision of graduate students.
Job requirements
(1) PhD degree in Mechanical/Material Science/Chemical Engineering or related fields;
A postdoctoral associate position is available in Dr. Baoxing Xu’s group in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Virginia.
The successful candidate will work on a project related to nanomechanics and thermal transport of materials and functional structures and their coupling with applications in the design and manufacturing of electronic devices and structures.
Funded PhD positions are available in Dr. Baoxing Xu’s group in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Virginia. Educational background in mechanics, mechanical engineering, heat transfer, or nanomanufacturing is necessary. Research skill/experience in computational modeling and simulations is a plus.
