[徵才] PhD RA positions at Penn State Univ
[徵才]Two PhD RA positions available at Penn State Univ (Fall 2020)
Two Graduate Research Assistant (RA) positions are available in Dr. Xing Wang
's lab in the Ken and Mary Alice Lindquist Department of Nuclear Engineering
at the Pennsylvania State University.
The research in Xing's lab focuses on radiation-material interactions,
materials for Gen IV nuclear reactors, microscopy analysis and multiscale
simulations. The goal is to understand the material behaviors under extreme
conditions and facilitate the materials development for advanced nuclear
power applications. More information can be found at
https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Xing_Wang23
Potential research topics for the incoming Ph.D. RAs include
- Multiscale modelling of long-term material behaviors in nuclear reactors
- Investigation of radiation-induced defects by combining atomistic
simulations and microscopy analysis (scanning transmission electron
microscope, atom probe tomography, etc.)
- Characterization of material degradation process using in situ TEM
- Automatic defect analysis based on high-throughput calculations and machine
learning
Students with background in Nuclear Engineering/Materials Science and
Engineering/Physics/Computational Sciences are highly encouraged to apply.
Applicants should follow the application procedures for Penn State Graduate
School. Applications for either Nuclear Engineering or Materials Science and
Engineering are acceptable. The application deadline for 2020 fall is
December 15, 2019. For more information, please contact Xing
(wangxing07@gmail.com) .
About the Principal Investigator:
Xing Wang received his B.S. degree in Engineering Physics from Tsinghua
University in 2011, and his Ph.D. degree in Nuclear Engineering from the
University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2016. He will join Penn State as an
Assistant Professor in January 2020, after finishing his current postdoctoral
research in Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
