Faculty position in Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Syracuse University

Submitted by Teng zhang on

The Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department (MAE) at Syracuse University is seeking applications for a Tenure-Track Assistant Professor position in the field of Solid Mechanics beginning Fall 2023.

PhD Opportunity—Hygro-thermo-mechanical Analysis of Layered Composites

Submitted by Zia Javanbakht on

Overview. Two full-time PhD positions on "Hygro-thermo-mechanical Analysis of Layered Composites" are available. The successful candidate will be working within a team to develop analytical/numerical solutions for the hygrothermal response of composites or similar layered products. The main idea is to work on orthotropic layers stacked arbitrarily.  

Minimum Requirements. High GPA (>85%) and a track record of high quality relevant publications (minimum one first-author journal paper).

Several PhD positions available at Vanderbilt University

Submitted by Caglar Oskay on

 

We are seeking several doctoral students to join the Multiscale Computational Mechanics Laboratory (MCML) at Vanderbilt University beginning either Spring 2023 or Fall 2023. The two broad research areas are briefly described below. Candidates must also have a strong general interest (prior experience is a plus) in computational mathematics, mechanics, modeling and simulation and computer programming.

 

The specific research areas as follows:

 

PhD position in multi-scale modeling of sea ice deformation

Submitted by Arttu Polojärvi on

We are looking for a doctoral student to work multi-scale modeling of sea ice deformation on numerical modeling of ridging of sea ice by using discrete element method. Large-scale continuum models are typically used to study ice behavior with a resolution of some tens of kilometers. These models do not accurately describe small-scale processes related to deformation and failure of ice. In such models, the ice properties, such as compressive strength are tuned so that the models to present observed ice behavior. Predictive power of the models suffers from this.

Postdoctoral Position at the University of Connecticut in Modeling of Mechanics of Polymer Matrix Composites at Atomic Scales

Submitted by Dongare on

The Computational Materials and Mechanics Group (CMMG) at the University of Connecticut has an opening for a postdoctoral researcher in the modeling of mechanical behavior polymer matrix composites across multiple scales starting immediately.

The postdoctoral researcher will use classical molecular dynamics simulations and machine learning algorithms to investigate the links between atomic-scale microstructure and the properties/behavior of polymer matrix composites under high-rate deformation.
