Job position
Mechanical Engineering Instructor (Mechanics/Structural Dynamics)
Location: University, MS, US, 38677
Department: Mechanical Engineering (10000925)
Employee Designation: Regular Full-time (Benefits Eligible)
Position Description
One Ph.D. position (2020 Fall) in Mechanical Engineering at North Carolina State University
One fully funded Ph.D. position Starting 2020 Fall in YIN group at NCSU
The research program will focus on soft robotics and mechanical metamaterials. The research will involve a combination of experiments (3D printing, mechanical testing, materials synthesis, and fabrication etc), analytical modeling, and numerical simulation methods (mainly finite element method).
New method to fabricate 3D curvy electronics
We report a manufacturing technology, called conformal additive stamp (CAS) printing and show that it can be used to reliably manufacture electronic devices with 3D shapes. Our CAS printing approach employs a pneumatically inflated elastomeric balloon as a conformal stamping medium to pick up pre-fabricated electronic devices and print them onto 3D surfaces to create devices with curvy shapes including electrically small antennas, hemispherical solar cells and smart contact lenses.
