Modern digital design and fabrication methods in architecture, engineering and construction, provide enhanced freedom in the sculpting, optimisation, fabrication and construction of building geometries, be they free-form structural shells, cladding elements or performance optimised lightweight structural components.
Applications are invited for a PhD scholarship at Imperial College London. The project will involve the development of novel computational tools to unravel fracture mechanics challenges across disciplines. The student will join the Mechanics of Infrastructure Materials Lab, led by Dr Emilio Martínez-Pañeda.
Discovering the bio-mechanical signatures of cancer cells in 3D tumouroid models:
We are seeking outstanding candidates for a 4 year PhD studentship fully funded by the UCL Institute of Healthcare Engineering. The student will be jointly supervised by Dr. Emad Moeendarbary based in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Dr Umber Cheema based at the Division of Surgery and Interventional Sciences.
Studentship Description:
There is a new opening for a PhD student at the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of New South Wales, Sydney (Australia). We are looking for a PhD student in the broad area of computational mechanics. Candidates should have a strong background in the theory and application of the Finite Element Method (FEM) and expertise in programming (Matlab, Fortran, etc.).
There is a PhD position available for UK/EU students at the School of MACE, University of Manchester.
This PhD opportunity in fluid dynamics/nanocomposite manufacturing at the University of Manchester. We are looking for a motivated student with a strong background in fundamental fluid mechanics, applied mathematics and computer programming.
2 PhD Research Assistant positions are immediately available. The research is on computational mechanics and materials relating to nuclear materials, energy storage materials, proteins, and composite materials. Applicants with background or interest in related research are preferred.
Temple University is located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Philadelphia is the sixth-most populous U.S. city, about 2 hours drive from New York City and 3 hours drive from Washington DC.
There exist positions for postdoctoral students in the mechanical engineering department at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) in the areas of a) computational solid mechanics and b) experimental methods including biomechanical characterizations, biochemistry and molecular biology.
