PhD position – Inkjet printing and characterisation of electronic devices
The Dipartimento di Ingegneria dell'Informazione (DII) at the University of Pisa is involved in several areas of the field of Information Technology. Within the field of Nanoelectronics, the research activities of DII include the characterization and fabrication of micro and nano scale devices, to be exploited in a wide range of electronic applications (e.g., digital, Radio frequency, flexible, portable, etc.).
Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Computational Simulation and Optimization of Textiles
We are looking for a postdoctoral research fellow who has experience with developing and implementing computational algorithms for simulation and optimization in structural mechanics.
He or she will be involved in an interdisciplinary project for the development of a computational framework for the design of functional, smart, performance textiles. The objective is to develop and implement novel computational algorithms for a multi-scale and multi-physics simulation of functional textiles and fabrics, which will be at the core of a multifunctional design optimization framework. The position requires a deep understanding of structural mechanics concepts, as well as experience in algorithm development for computational simulation and optimization.
Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Computational Geometry for Textile Design & Manufacturing
We are looking for a postdoctoral research fellow who has experience with developing and implementing computational algorithms for geometry processing.
He or she will be involved in the interdisciplinary development of an enhanced computational design, optimization, and fabrication framework for functional textiles. The objective is to develop and implement novel computational algorithms for the physical realization of complex three dimensional (3D) technical textile designs using state-of-the-art CNC knitting technology.
The position requires expertise in computational geometry and software development. The candidate must be passionate about interdisciplinary, cutting-edge research and have good communicative skills.
Research Assistant in Computational Mechanics
We are looking for a research assistant who is interested in developing and implementing computational algorithms for simulation and optimization in structural mechanics applications.
Our current research lies broadly in the field of computational mechanics and includes the development and implementation of novel computational methods for the discretization of ordinary and partial differential equations arising in structural and continuum mechanics (such as finite element methods and isogeometric analysis), multi-disciplinary design, shape and topology optimization methods, as well as application of those methods in digital design and additive manufacturing, e.g. 3D/4D printing, lattice structures, metamaterials, composites or textiles, and integration into computer-aided design-to-manufacturing approaches.
Moisture movement in cement-based repair systems monitored by X-ray absorption
Dear all,
