University of Oxford invites applications for a 3.5-year D.Phil. studentship in the Brassart Group, focusing on mesoscale modelling of polymer networks to predict time-dependent deformation and failure.
The project combines physics-based modelling with experimental validation and molecular simulations where appropriate. The successful candidate will develop physically grounded viscoelastic and chain-scission models, analyse network topology, and apply statistical mechanics and stochastic
