Research Associate position on Multiscale Modelling of Thermal Barrier Coatings (Cardiff University)

A full time postdoctoral research associate position is available at Cardiff University under the supervision of Professor Bhushan L. Karihaloo and Dr Kulasegaram and Zhu, funded by FP7. http://www.engin.cf.ac.uk/research/resInstitute.asp?InstNo=13
 
The research aims to develop novel metal-ceramic materials for aerospace and automotive applications. 

Objectives: 

- To develop multi-scale computational models for alumnia-copper and alumina-Ni-Al inter-metallic functionally graded composites 

- To investigate the thermo-mechanical behaviour of the above composites under thermal cyclic loading, including the determination of residual stresses
 
Fixed term for 2 years 

£29853 0 £35646 per annum. 

Inquiries to be directed to Dr Sivakumar Kulasegaram: KulasegaramS@cf.ac.uk
