job

A post-doctoral position is immediately available in a research group by Prof. Kyoungsoo Park at the School of Civil & Environmental Engineering, Yonsei University, Seoul, Korea. The successful applicant should have strong research background on computational fracture mechanics associated with cohesive zone modeling, contact mechanics, microstructure computation, hygro-thermo-mechanical analysis, parallel computing or related research area. Specific research direction can be discussed. If interested, please contact Dr.

We are looking for a talented, self-motivated, and enthusiastic student with a BSc or MSc degree in mechanical or materials engineering. Students with strong background in crystal plasticity and computational mechanics are recommended to apply.

Prospective candidates will be assessed based on how well they meet the following criteria:

§  Excellent degree in their relevant discipline;

§  Excellent written and spoken communication skills (iBT TOFEL score must be higher than 86, with no individual score below 20)

Let me know if you are interested before 20th March 2019, I could act as a host.

The Nanomechanics Simulations Laboratory at the Technion (Haifa, Israel) is seeking applicants for a computational study on nucleation-controlled plasticity. Immediate openings are available for Ph.D. students in several projects. In these projects, you will develop models for the strength of specimens at the nanoscale, to account for the effect of temperature and lattice defects on the nucleation-controlled strength.
