<p><font face="Arial"  size="2" ><span style="font-weight: bold;" >2 postdoc/PhD positions at ICAMS, Ruhr-Universit&auml;t Bochum, Germany</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial"  size="2" >In the Department 'Atomistic Modelling and Simulation' at the Interdisciplinary Centre for Advanced Materials Simulation (ICAMS) 2 positions are available immediately for doctoral students or postdoctoral researchers in the area of modelling superalloys,</font></p>
<p align="justify" ><span style="font-weight: bold;" ><font face="Arial"  size="2" >1. Comparison of Ni-based and Co-based superalloys by means of electronic structure and atomic size</font></span><br/>
<span style="font-weight: bold;" ><br/>
<font face="Arial"  size="2" >2. Influence of central d-band elements: mobility, segregation and interaction with defects in Ni-based superalloys</font></span></p>
<p align="justify" ><font face="Arial"  size="2" ><br/>
The projects are embedded in the newly established collaborative research centre <strong>SFB/TR103 'From atoms to turbine blades - Scientific foundations for a new generation of single-crystal superalloys'</strong>. The projects will involve close collaborations with the consortium-partners, in particular at the Ruhr-Universit&auml;t Bochum, the Friedrich-Alexander Universit&auml;t Erlangen-N&uuml;rnberg and the MPI for Eisenforschung in D&uuml;sseldorf.</font></p>
<p align="justify" ><font face="Arial"  size="2" ><br/>
Besides a keen interest in the application of quantum mechanical methods for the modelling of materials and a strong background in solid state physics, we expect excellent communication skills in English and willingness to travel to collaborators worldwide. Experience in working with UNIX/Linux and code development in Fortran, C or C++ is beneficial.</font></p>
<p align="justify" ><font face="Arial"  size="2" ><br/>
- Ph.D. positions: candidates are required to hold an appropriate degree (Diplom/MSc/MEng/Laurea) in Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science, Mathematics or a related discipline. The PhD position is for 4 years.</font></p>
<p align="justify" ><font face="Arial"  size="2" ><br/>
- Postdoctoral positions: we seek a researcher with a proven record in the field of computational modelling on the atomic scale. The postdoctoral position is for 2 years initially with a possible extension to 4 years.</font></p>
<p align="justify" ><font face="Arial"  size="2" ><br/>
Qualified candidates are asked to submit their Curriculum Vitae, list of publications and the names, affiliations and email addresses of up to three references. Please e-mail only plain text or pdf-files. Please quote 'Position SFB/TR103' in the subject header and send your application to</font></p>

The Interdisciplinary Centre for Advanced Materials Simulation</font><font face="Arial"  size="2" > (www.icams.de) is a centre for the modelling of materials at the Ruhr-Universit&auml;t Bochum, Germany. At ICAMS an interdisciplinary team of scientists from engineering, materials science, chemistry, physics and mathematics is working on the development and application of a new generation of simulation tools for multi-scale materials modelling. The Department 'Atomistic Modelling and Simulation' (http://www.icams.de/content/departments/ams/index.html) covers the range from quantum-mechanical simulations on the basis of density functional theory to large-scale simulations employing bond-order potentials.</font></p>
