We seek for highly motivated
Ph.D. candidates in the field of 1) Acoustic metamaterials (e.g., phononic
crystals), 2) Advanced composite materials, and 3) NDE/SHM, to join Professor JK Yang's laboratory (http://www.me.sc.edu/research/ASL/)
at the University of South Carolina. Dr. Yang's Laboratory is
located in the Mechanical Engineerin Department, which is ranked 31st
in the U.S. according to National Research Council and is recently emerging due
to the construction of Aerospace Cluster driven by Boeing Company and GE
Aviation.

We focus on developing advanced aerospace/mechanical/biomechanical
structures based on novel material systems and sensing devices, using both
experimental and numerical approaches. Candidates should have a B.S. degree in
applied physics, material science, mechanical engineering, or a related field.
Good oral and writing communication skills are required.
