This researcher will work with Profs. Sidney Yip, Nicola Marzari, and Krystyn Van Vliet as part of an interdisciplinary, international team that includes strong collaboration with industry partners. The focus of the project is multiscale computational modeling and simulation of metastable metallic alloys under extreme thermal and mechanical environments. The objective is to identify mechanisms of crystalline defect evolution and consequences toward mechanical deformation. Funding of this position is for an initial period of 2 years. Demonstrated experience in scientific programming and the application of DFT methods for solid state systems is mandatory; experience with kinetic Monte Carlo and molecular/dislocation dynamics is preferred. The position is open immediately with a mutually agreed starting date. Requests for further information and applications (CV, two recommenders' contact information, and one representative publication) should be sent to Prof. Krystyn J. Van Vliet, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, MIT; E-mail:krystyn-at-mit.edu
