American Society for Composites (ASC) 29th Technical Conference
Abstract submission deadline: Feb 1, 2014
Postdoctoral Positions in Computational Mechanics and Multiphysics at the US Naval Research Laboratory
The Multifunctional Materials Branch of the Materials Science & Technology Division at the US Naval Research Laboratory in Washington DC has an interest in postdoctoral associate candidates for several areas in computational mechanics and multiphysics.
Topic of interest include: a) biomechanics of injury at high-rate of deformation at multiple scales, b) multiscale dynamics of flexible armor, c) crystal plasticity and dislocation dynamics in electrically assisted deformation of metals, and d) multiphysics modeling of corrosion.
