Dr. B. Bourdin is expecting to hire one or more postdoctoral fellows to join his research group supported by the Canada Research Chair in Mathematical and Computational Aspects of Solid Mechanics. The research projects include but are not limited to advanced discretizations and numerical schemes for variational phase-field of fracture, the analysis of coupling of fracture and diffusion processes, and microstructure reconstruction from 3D imaging. The expected duration of the appointment is two years and will include a limited amount of teaching. The fellowship is open to candidates of any nationality. Candidates must have a PhD. in mathematics or related fields. Some knowledge of solid mechanics, calculus of variations, applied PDE, or mathematical aspects of the finite element method is expected. It provides a minimum annual stipend salary of $50,000, plus a $2,000 grant for research expenses, with some flexibility to adjust to experience and career stage of candidates.
Candidates are required to apply for this fellowship by using the MathJobs website by January 1, 2023 for full consideration. See our advertisement at www.mathjobs.org. Applicants should provide a letter of application, curriculum vitae, research statement, teaching statement and at least three letters of recommendation, of which at least one should report on the candidate's teaching abilities. These letters must be submitted electronically through the MathJobs website (see above). For further information about this fellowship, please contact both Dr. Blaise Bourdin(bourdin@mcmaster.ca).
We
appreciate all replies to this advertisement, but only applicants under
consideration will be contacted.
