Multiple PhD positions at available at Mines Paris in the field of computational mechanics :

Application Deadline: 2026-April-26

Do you have a background in nonlinear continuum mechanics, constitutive modeling, soft tissue modelling or finite element analysis and a passion for advancing the understanding of brain injury? Then this could be a position for you. We are looking for an ambitious, collaborative and structured person to join our team to improve the brain material modelling!

I have an opening for a post-doctoral fellow position in my group. The initial appointment is for one year and is renewable. The ideal candidate must have a strong foundation in classical continuum mechanics. Research in my group is largely theoretical supplemented (occasionally) with computational work. Although not required, some background in quantum mechanics, statistical physics, and electromagntism is desirable.

An industrial project, funded by Transvalor for a duration of three years, will commence in early October 2026 (Phd_2026_MORCAST_En.pdf). The project, entitled Model Order Reduction for Real-Time Digital Twins of Continuous Casting (MORCAST), will be supervised by Dr. Yancheng Zhang and Prof. David Ryckelynck at CEMEF, MINES Paris - PSL, France.

The research will take place at CEMEF, MINES Paris – PSL, France.

Application Deadline: 2026-April-30

The overall objective of the FAST-AM project (Post-doc_2026_Fast_AM_En.pdf) is to accelerate the numerical modeling of additive manufacturing processes by developing advanced model order reduction techniques and applying them to the design of complex industrial components.

Then this could be a position for you. We are looking for an ambitious, collaborative and structured person to join our team to improve the brain material modelling!

In this role, you will take a leading position in advancing the material modelling of brain tissue. You will work within an interdisciplinary, international, collaborative, and supportive work environment. You will be an integral part of the growing division of Neuronic Engineering with the mission to bridge engineering and medicine to improve the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of injuries to the human nervous system. You will work closely with Prof. Svein Kleiven, Assist. Prof. Zhou Zhou, and Assoc. Prof. Xiaogai Li at the Neuronic division, and will also collaborate with other research groups at KTH, including Prof. Christian Gasser, Lisa Prahl Wittberg, and Rodrigo Moreno. This opportunity is ideal for those seeking to advance their research career in engineering science, computational modelling, and brain health at a leading global institution.

Symposium Overview of S86 Mechanics of Energy Materials and Structures

Dear all,

A postdoctoral position of 12 months will probably open on the modeling of AM process using crystal plasticity models.

Experience on developping and implementing crystal plasticity models in finite element codes is required. Only candidates who have experience on CP will be selected for the following steps of the enrolment process.

To apply to this offer, thanks for sending the required documents:
