Immediate postdoctoral position in soft robotics at USC

Submitted by Hangbo Zhao on

The Zhao Research Group (https://sites.usc.edu/zhaogroup/) in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at University of Southern California is seeking applications for an immediately available postdoctoral position in soft robotics. The objective of this project is to develop novel dexterous soft robotic manipulators incorporating advanced sensors, actuators, and closed-loop control.

PhD Position in Atomistic Simulations of Microstructure-Induced Failure

Submitted by Erik Bitzek on

The mechanical properties of alloys, and thus their susceptibility to damage and failure, are determined by their chemical composition as well as by their process-dependent microstructure. While microstructural modifications are well-known to improve, e.g., the yield stress or fatigue lifetime by orders of magnitudes, no thorough atomistic methods for systematic high-throughput exploration of the microstructure space have been performed yet. 

Funded position - Experimental reactive fluid mechanics for aerospace applications

Submitted by etienne.robert on

We welcome applications for several PhD positions in reactive fluid mechanics for aerospace application. More specifically on the fire resistance of Li-Ion batteries and composites as well as on hydrogen combustion. The PhD position available involve experimental work but can also include a numerical simulation component. The student is therefore expected to carry out laboratory work, data analysis and numerical simulation tasks, with a focus to be identified according to individual interests and qualifications.
