PhD Position in Glass-Forming Biocompatible Ti-Based Materials at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona in Spain

The objective of this project is to tailor amorphous / glassy Ti-alloys containing neither toxic nor allergic additions and to understand the correlation between chemistry, glassy structure and mechanical response (elastic & plastic behavior). The project will make use of two processing options: controlled solidification (different casting methods, cooling rates ranging between 103-106 ºC/s) and powder metallurgy. Tasks: a) synthesis of glassy materials (different processing routes); b) in-depth structural characterisation (XRD, electron microscopy); c) glassy phase thermal stability and crystallization kinetics (using DSC, DTA, TGA); d) Net-shape processing – thermoplastic forming in supercooled liquid region; e) elastic and plastic deformation behavior (nanoidentation, ultrasonic measurements, mechanical tests etc); f) finite element simulations of the mechanical behaviour.

The provision of development aid of the Slovak Republic (SR) in the area of education takes the form of the award of scholarships of the Government of the SR that are consistent with the conditions approved by the Government Resolution No.344/2010 of 25 May 2010 for developing countries and for Slovaks living abroad. The provision of scholarships of the Slovak Republic Government (2011-2012) is a long-term component of development assistance by the SR, which is a programme and project activity of the SR Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the framework of the international community.

The official range of scholarship positions available is annually notified through the diplomatic offices of the SR abroad.

• Under the development aid for the developing countries, the official offer is sent to the ministry of foreign affairs of the relevant country in accordance with the approved breakdown of countries and scholarship places in particular academic years.
• Under the aid to Slovaks living abroad, the offer is sent to the official compatriot representatives according to the approved breakdown of countries and scholarship positions in relevant academic years.

The Board of Sidney Sussex College offered annually to men and women of any nationality, a series of Evan Lewis Thomas Law grants for research or advanced courses in law or related subjects at the University of Cambridge. Evan Lewis Thomas The Act grants, which are subject to reviews of diligence and progress, are sustained for a year in the first case, but may be renewed annually for up to three years. Its value depends on the needs of the candidate in light of support from other sources and the availability of the Fund’s income by Evan Lewis Thomas.

Under the terms of the will of the late Judge Evan Lewis Thomas, candidates must have demonstrated competence in Law and Jurisprudence, usually by obtaining a university degree in law from August 2010, and must be or become candidates for the Ph.D. Degree, Diploma in Legal Studies, the Diploma in International Law, M. Phil. Degree (one year course) in Criminology, Bachelor or Master.
