发帖数: 34 | 1 A PhD positions with financial support in the form of research assistant is
immediately available in the Mechanical Engineering department at the
University of Utah (the U).
This specific position is offered by the laboratory of laser-based
manufacturing in the department. The student is expected to work on a
project of laser-based additive manufacturing. The focus of this project
will be placed on (a) understanding the fundamental physics of laser-powder
interaction and powder behavior in selective laser melting processes and (b)
applications of such processes in manufacturing of medical devices. More
information about the lab can be found at http://tanlab.mech.utah.edu/
All applicants are encouraged to apply, background on one of the following
areas will be a plus:
- Numerical modeling of materials processing (computational heat transfer
and fluid mechanics, computational solid mechanics, computational materials,
etc.);
- Experiment design and analysis of laser-based manufacturing processes;
- Laser Optics and laser-matter interaction.
Interested applicants can contact Professor Wenda Tan (email: wenda.tan@mech
.utah.edu) with any questions or a resume that summarizes the relevant
research experience and accomplishments.
For your information:
The ME department at the U has been experiencing a rapid growth thanks to
the continuing financial support from the Utah state government and the
University itself. In the last decade, the numbers of faculty and students
have been more than doubled. On the research side, the department has been
increasingly active, and a good reputation of the department has been
growing in academia. The department has a close relationship with the
medical school of the U, which is ranked top 50 in the US. This liaison
provides great opportunities for interdisciplinary researches in the regimes
of bio-mechanics, bio-robotics, bio-design and bio-manufacturing. Due to
the fast development of its research works, a lot of graduate students are
wanted, and plenty of funding opportunities are available within the
department. |
