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.

PostDoc position in Computational Geomechanics and Multiscale Modelling at UFZ (Germany)
The Department of Environmental Informatics at the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ), whose main base is in Leipzig (Germany), is seeking at the earliest possible date a PostDoc in Computational Geomechanics and Multiscale Modelling.
Energy and environmental aspects of geoscience remain the greatest challenges that our society will face in the coming decades. To provide a numerical tool for environmental protection (e.g. sub-surface integrity) and energy transition (e.g. underground energy storage), Department of Environmental Informatics develops an open-source Finite Element platform, OpenGeoSys in C++. The tool enables us to simulate multi-physical processes in sub-surface such as fluid and heat transport, or rock deformation and failure. For simulation of discontinuous deformation or crack propagation in rock, a variational phase-field (VPF) model has been adapted and implemented in OpenGeoSys (OGS-6). Within the GeomInt2 project (www.ufz.de/geomint) the VPF method shall be further developed and applied to various applications such as field experiments in the Underground Research Laboratories and Mines in Mont Terri (Opalinus clay) and Springen (salt rock), respectively.
Closing date for applications: 22.11.2020
