Description of the project:
The Department of Mechanical Engineering and Materials of the School of Engineering of the University of Navarra (Tecnun) is seeking a candidate to carry out a doctoral thesis focused on the integration of hybrid manufacturing technologies (combining additive and subtractive manufacturing) of high performance in the manufacture of lightweight metal components, with special emphasis on the design and optimization of gears. The proposal seeks to establish a change in the manufacture of these components starting from a flexible and lightweight design oriented to hybrid manufacturing incorporating topological optimization and reticular structures. This approach aims to increase production flexibility and apply advanced hybrid manufacturing techniques to address the manufacture of this type of metal component. The project will focus on the development of methodologies and integrated analytical or numerical models for the design and hybrid manufacturing of lightweight components combining additive manufacturing by means of laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) and post-processing based on machining processes, in order to manufacture parts with zero defects and guaranteeing the required mechanical properties and the precision and surface finish of the part.
