About the Project
The Holistic Structural Integrity Process (HolSIP) Laboratory at Clarkson University has a funded position available for graduate students interested in the field of structural integrity modelling and simulations.
The HolSIP lab is looking for a candidate to work under the supervision of Prof. Marcias Martinez and Prof. Craig Merrett. Qualifications include:
1. Completed MS in Mechanical and/or Aerospace/Aeronautical Engineering (preferred).
2. Experience in Experimental Mechanics and/or Finite Element Modeling (ABAQUS CAE).
3. Strong background in mathematical and computational analysis.
4. Proficient in technical writing.
5. Consistent with requirements of research funding, preference will be given to US Citizens and/or US permanent residents.
Prof. Martinez and Prof. Merrett are collaborating with an industry partner in the modelling and simulation of glass bead manufacturing. This technical challenge will require a strong candidate to look at the physics of glass fracture through Finite Element Analysis and statistical methods. In addition, the student will be working in collaboration with the industry partner in the Potsdam plant. As such we are seeking for a graduate student who is comfortable performing experimental studies in a manufacturing operational environment.
