Two PhD positions are available immediately in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at State University of New York (SUNY) Stony Brook University, New York, US.
The research program is about mechanics and multifunctional applications of new advanced materials (such as polymer cellular solids, polymer composites, and metamaterials) focusing on mechanical performance, 3D printing, acoustic/elastic wave propagation, energy absorption, and impact resistance. The candidates with background in solid mechanics and finite element analysis are highly encouraged to apply.
