> recognized Industrial Research Chair (IRC) program in Nuclear Materials.
> The chair program is now in its
> second five year term, with current funding of ~4M$. The senior
> Chair-holder works in the areas of
> radiation damage, radiation-induced deformation and properties of
> zirconium and nickel alloys in nuclear
> applications. The associate Chair-holder, who also holds a Canada Research
> Chair (CRC) in Mechanics of
> Materials, works in the areas of multi-scale modeling, mechanics of
> materials and materials
> characterization by neutron and X-ray diffraction, with a special emphasis
> on nuclear materials. The
> successful candidate will work closely with the Chair-holders, and will
> perform research independent but
> complementary to the chair program. One possible research area is
> materials characterization by
> electron-optical techniques and microstructure-property relationships.
> Further information on the chair
> program can be found at http://me.queensu.ca/research/nuclear/.
> Applicants must hold a Ph.D. degree in Materials and/or Metallurgical
> Engineering (or be near completion)
> and will have expertise in an area that supports the chair program. The

> and Ph.D. programs.
> Mechanical and Materials Engineering is an active partner in the
> Integrated Learning Centre (ILC). In
> addition to the NSERC IRC/CRC program in Nuclear Materials, research is
> supported by an NSERC Design
> Chair, a CRC in Computational Turbulence, a CRC in Tissue Engineering and
> a QRC in Fluid Dynamics and
> Multi-scale Phenomena. The Centre for Advanced Materials and Manufacturing
> (CAMM), the Centre for
> Manufacturing of Advanced Ceramics and Nanomaterials (CMACN), the Fuel
> Cell Research Centre (FCRC),
> the Human Mobility Research Centre (HMRC), the High Performance Computing
> Virtual Laboratory
> (HPCVL), and other initiatives, further support research in the department
> and the faculty. Further
