Dr. Liying Jiang (https://www.eng.uwo.ca/mechanical/faculty/jiang_l/index.html) at the University of Western Ontario is recruiting new graduate students, at both MESc and PhD levels.  Priority will be given to students with Solid Mechanics background. Please send your CV with your transcripts to her by email: lyjiang@eng.uwo.ca.

Dr. Jiang’s research interests and activities cover a wide range in solid and applied mechanics. Her expertise is in establishing mechanics and physics models for challenging problems related to materials behavior through theoretical modeling and numerical simulations. Some specific research topics are:

Size-dependent properties of nanostrucutred materials, particularly piezoelectric nanomaterials.
Electromechanical coupling behavior of dielectric elastomers for applications in transduction technology.
Computational mechanics modeling of mechanical properties of fiber reinforced composites
Multi-scale modeling on the mechanical and electrical properties of CNT-polymer nanocomposites
Buckling and wrinkling behavior of thin film materials
Mechanical properties of carbon nanotube and graphene
Fracture and failure analysis of functionally graded piezoelectric materials 返回小木虫查看更多
