and 

(2) Elastic and acoustic metamaterials using additive manufacturing.

Both positions are supported by EU-funded Marie-Curie Fellowships programme. Details within the links above. Informal enquiries to ab13 [at] soton [dot] ac [dot] uk

Applications only through the links above, please (and not emails)!

I am looking for candidates with a strong background in one or more of the following areas: structural mechanics, structural dynamics, vibration, wave propagation, additive manufacturing, applied mathematics. The first post is mostly computational/theoretical with some elements of additive manufacturing. The second post is mostly experimental (vibration measurement) with some elements of theory and additive manufacturing.

Candidates must have a degree in engineering (mechanical, aerospace, civil, or related) or another numerate discipline (mathematics, physics, mechanics). A master's degree is desirable.

Deadline now extended.
