job

The Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Colorado
at Boulder invites applications for two full-time positions beginning
fall 2010. The positions are for tenure-track assistant professors with
disciplinary expertise in the areas of (1) Bioengineering (posting #808181), and (2) Solid Mechanics/Materials Physics (posting #808182);
higher rank may be considered for experienced candidates. Candidates
are expected to strongly complement and strengthen existing
departmental research in biomechanical/biomaterials engineering, energy
and environmental engineering, micro/nanosystems engineering, materials
engineering or solid/fluid mechanics. Candidates must have an earned

The Department of Mechanical Engineering seeks an outstanding individual for a tenure-track faculty position in Mechanics.  The appointment is expected to be at the assistant professor level; in an exceptional case, a senior faculty appointment may be possible. Faculty duties include teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels, development of an independent, internationally-recognized research program, and supervision of student research.

The Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at Northeastern University invites applications and nominations for a tenured faculty position beginning in September 2010 at the Associate or Full Professor level. Candidates with well established, well funded and internationally recognized research programs are sought to expand the department’s research efforts. The position is in the general area of Nanotechnology, preferably with an emphasis in mechanics. Collaboration with our NSF funded Center for High-rate Nanomanufacturing as well as excellence in teaching are expected.

Postdoctoral Research Associate

University of Oxford - Department of Engineering Science

We have an opening for a postdoctoral scholar in the area of computational mechanics. Specific problems of interest include molecular dynamics and meshless method for continuum damage mechanics. Rich experience of C++, X-windows image processing, and Fortran programming (especially parallel processing) is required.   Contact: Professor Jung-Wuk Hong at Michigan State University.  Email: jwh at egr dot msu dot edu.

TEM Postdoc Position Available at Sandia National Lab.

I have an open position for a Post-doctoral researcher in the area of biomimetics and novel ceramic composite armor designs, starting immediately.  

• Required background: Mechanics of materials, dynamic failure and numerical modeling.
• Preferred but not required: background in experimental mechanics, biological / biomimetic materials.

Project in partnership with industry, and in collaboration with shock physics and material synthesis experts
