Our group at Manufacturing Demonstration Facility (MDF), Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is looking for a postdoctoral research associate to work on Process Modeling for Polymer Composites Manufacturing. More details on the job posting are available at this link. Interested candidates should apply directly using that link.
A Postdoctoral opening is available in the area of toughening of thermoplastic adhesive tapes at Mechanica of Composites for Energy and Mobility lab at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST).
Performance of secondary bonding or adhesive systems is a key challenges for the successful integration of composite. MCEM has a strong experience in improving toughness and stability of adhesive joints by controlling the dissipation mechanisms, via the design of the microstructure or by introducing spatially depending adhesive properties.
One fully-funded Ph.D. position is available in my team for Fall 2022 or Spring 2023. The prospective Ph.D. student should be highly motivated to participate in computational and/or experimental research related to the mechanics of lithium-ion batteries. Applicants should submit a full CV to yanyu.chen [at] louisville.edu.
The Traverso Laboratory is seeking a mechanical/biomedical reseach engineer to join the team focused on the development of novel gastrointestinal (GI) devices for treatment of major diseases. This includes technologies such as drug delivery systems, smart pills and stents, soft actuators, and ingestible electronics. The ideal candidate will have experience with designing and analyzing mechanical systems and materials for biological application.
Multiple fully funded PhD positions are available as early as Fall 2022 and Spring 2023 in Dr. Ning Zhang’s research group in the Mechanical Engineering department at Baylor University. The research work will focus on exploring and designing novel, green and advanced materials through experimental synthesis and characterization, as well as multiscale modeling.
The research topics include:
(1) Sustainable and strong polymer composites;
(2) Medium/High entropy alloys;
(3) Biomaterials;
(4) Machine learning;
The Shankar Research Group (www.shankarlab.pitt.edu) at the University of Pittsburgh anticipates an opening for a postdoctoral associate starting September 2022. The position’s primary area of research will focus on 3D printing with liquid crystal elastomers and cholesteric liquid crystal polymers. A background in synthesis of liquid crystalline polymers, photoalignment techniques and polymer characterization is required.
A postdoctoral position will be available at University of Pavia in Italy starting January 2023. The position will be part of an ERC Starting project. Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Dr Giulia Scalet (giulia.scalet [at] unipv.it).
A 3-year postdoctoral position is available in the Solid Mechanics & Materials Group at the University of Oxford to study the mechanical and degradation behaviour of biodegradable polymers using experimental methods. The postdoctoral researcher will be supervised by Associate Prof. Laurence Brassart and the project is supported by UKRI.
Our Multiphyical Geomechanics group (Link) at the Civil Engineering department of the University of Colorado Boulder has an opening PhD position for Spring 2023 or Fall 2023 in the area of Engineering Mechanics or Geomechanics. Please see the PDF attached for more details. Thank you!
