We are looking for a highly motivated candidate for a PhD position between École des Ponts ParisTech and University of Pavia, starting October 2024. The position is part of the EU-funded project MISCEA, an ambitious multidisciplinary Doctoral Training Network under the Horizon-Europe Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions COFUND.
Additive manufacturing is an exciting technology that seeing accelerated industry adoption. At the Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Canterbury we have established a modern 3D facility that is well equipped with printers and 3D scanning equipment. Although additive manufacture is finding applications in many industries, its full potential will be unrealised if parts are not optimised to take advantage of the new design freedoms available.
The project “Computational mechanics and optimisation for energy absorption of materials” is calling for applications for PhD scholarship commencing in 2021. This project is funded by the Australian Research Council Discovery Early Career Researcher Award. Candidates with knowledge and research experience in computational mechanics, design optimisation and machine learning are encouraged to apply.
