Dear All
I am currently looking for post-doctoral candidates to work on the simulation of the shot peening process by coupling discrete and dynamic finite element simulations. This is a two-year position. The project is in collaboration with 4 major aerospace companies and involved 6 other PhDs and 2 PDFs.
The applicants should have a very strong background in computational mechanics.
Please send me:
We are seeking to fill two postdoctoral scholar positions at Oregon State University. The ideal candidates will have expertise in one or more of the following: computational materials science, granular mechanics, solid mechanics, and/or mechanical testing of materials. Positions will initially be for 1 year with an anticipated starting date of January 1st, 2015, with the possibility to continue for a second year depending on performance and continued funding.
The successful candidates will:
IMATI-CNR and the Mathematics Department of the University of Pavia offer a postdoc position on isogeometric analysis. This research project focuses on the design and implementation of innovative isogeometric methods for solid/fluid mechanics. In particular the target applications are related to
- nearly-incompressible and fibered materials
- fluids in geological formations
This research project is partially supported by the private sector, and is supervised by Annalisa Buffa and Giancarlo Sangalli.
The Bioengineering Science Research Group at the University of Southampton invites applications for an 18 month post-doctoral position investigating the mechanical performance of unicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA).
Prof. Wei Cai at the Mechanical Engineering Department of Stanford University is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to lead a project on the modeling of grain structure evolution in the surface layer under friction. The major task of this project is the development of a phase field model for grain/sub-grain structure evolution under friction. It is likely that molecular dynamics and dislocation dynamics simulations would be required as well to obtain a good physical understanding of the process.
Two PhD positions are available immediately in the Computational Materials & Mechanics Laboratory at Missouri University of Science and Technology (Rolla):
1. Density functional theory calculations: Advanced High Strength Steels
2. Multi-phase field modeling: Boride Ceramics with Improved Fracture Toughness at Elevated Temperatures
Candidates should have a master's degree in mechanical engineering, materials science and engineering, solid-state physics, or applied mathematics. Experience in DFT, MD, or phase field modeling is desired.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering, Temple University, seeks applications and nominations for: (i) tenure-track lines at the junior level, and (ii) tenured lines at the senior level.
