A postdoctoral position is available in the material science laboratory (SIMAP) of INP Grenoble, France, in David Rodney’s group in collaboration with Laurent Capolungo from Georgia Tech Lorraine, with primary focus on the atomic-scale study of twinning in HCP metals. We are looking for a strongly motivated candidate to apply saddle-point search methods, including the Nudged Elastic Band method and the Activation Relaxation Technique, to study the nucleation and propagation of primary and secondary twins during the plastic deformation of HCP metals.
