POST DOC POSITIONS
A postdoctoral position in EPERIMENTAL GEOMECHANICS at the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geo-Engineering (University of Minnesota) is available immediately for a study associated with the Center for Interacting Geo-processes in Mineral Carbon Storage (GMCS). Applicants should submit a statement of interest, career goals, 2-page CV, and the names and contact information of three references. Inquiries and applications should be sent by email to Bojan Guzina (guzin001@umn.edu), Joseph Labuz (jlabuz@umn.edu), and Peter Kang (pkkang@umn.edu).
Multiple postdoc and PhD positions are open at Tsinghua University on MULTISCALE MODELING OF DEBRIS FLOW AND SEDIMENT TRANSPORT. The research activities aim to investigate debris flow and sediment transport in fluvial and coastal environments through a multiscale approach integrating experiments, simulations, and theory. Candidates having excellent experimental (micro-CT, RIMS, PIV/PTV), numerical (DEM-CFD/LBM, SPH, MPM, AI-aided methods), and/or theoretical (geomechanics, rheology, fluid dynamics) skills are sought.

DEBRIS FLOW HAZARD MITIGATION (DFHM8) – Turin, June 26-29, 2023
The 8th edition of the International Conference on Debris-Flow Hazard Mitigation (DFHM8) is jointly organized by Politecnico di Torino and the University of Turin, and will be held in turin on June 26-29, 2023. Contributions to the Conference will be in the form of an Extended Abstract (2 to 4 pages). The Conference programme will include selected oral communications and poster presentations. Deadline for the Extended Abstract submission: June 30, 2022. More info on this flyer and at this page.
8th International Conference on Debris Flow Hazard Mitigation (Turin, 26-29 June 2023)
The 8th International Conference on Debris Flow Hazard Mitigation – DFHM8 will be held at the Politecnico di Torino conference facilities in Turin, Italy, on 26-29 June 2023.
The conference will be a platform for participants to discuss the current situation, challenges and advancements related to debris flows, from triggering to deposition, passing through the analysis of their propagation dynamics and interaction with mitigation structures. Physical and numerical modelling together with real cases description, site survey and investigation will be the tools to allow sharing novelty, experiences and best practices.
With this in mind, and following the successful 7th conference held in Colorado, USA, in 2019, the Organizing Committee has set the goal to prepare a stimulating scientific program for scientists, professionals and policy makers.
Updated information on the conference is available on the conference website www.dfhm8.polito.it.
