The College of Surrey is a world group of concepts and other people, devoted to life-changing training and analysis.

We’re bold and have a daring imaginative and prescient of what we wish to obtain – shaping ourselves into the most effective universities on this planet, which we’re attaining via the abilities and endeavour of each worker.  

Our tradition empowers folks to realize this intention and to collectively, and individually, make an actual distinction.  

The function

Purposes are invited for a Analysis Fellow place that focuses on designing and growing superior management algorithms to reinforce the vitality effectivity and security of the subsequent era of electrical automobiles and their validation by way of {hardware} within the loop testing and superior simulations. This function additionally consists of modelling and simulating electrical automobiles and their elements for control-oriented purposes and actual time implementation of the management options.

The place is a part of the EM-TECH Horizon Europe mission, which focuses on growing management options aiming to considerably scale back vitality loss and enhance car efficiency leveraging revolutionary electrical machine know-how options for on-board and in-wheel powertrains. Due to the presence of business companions and universities from throughout Europe throughout the consortium, the mission may have the chance to check its proposed options utilizing a sophisticated distributed X-in-the-loop testing structure.

Working underneath the management of Dr Umberto Montanaro, Dr Davide Tavernini and Prof Patrick Gruber, you’ll be chargeable for the day-to-day analysis duties in accordance with the mission plan. This can embrace: 

  • Growing and implementing superior management algorithms for automobiles with electrical powertrains to reinforce car efficiency, security, vitality saving and luxury; 
  • Supporting superior simulations and modelling of electrical powertrains to optimise effectivity and efficiency; 
  • Collaborating with a staff of specialists in varied fields, together with electrical/digital engineering, mechanical engineering, and pc science; 
  • Collaborating in mission conferences, presenting analysis findings, and contributing to mission stories and publications.

About you

The profitable candidate may have a robust background in experimental testing, programming (MATLAB/SIMULINK) and management, and will have a PhD in a related self-discipline akin to mechanical, automotive or electrical/digital engineering. Additionally, expertise within the following areas is very fascinating:

  • Management growth and implementation, together with neural networks 
  • Actual-time fast management prototyping techniques (e.g., dSPACE)
  • Automobile dynamics management 
  • Instrumentation and data-logging
  • Digital twins
  • Electrical powertrains 

Be part of our dynamic and inclusive staff on the Centre for Automotive Engineering throughout the College of Mechanical Engineering Sciences. We actively search candidates from all backgrounds, valuing the distinctive views they create to our analysis, which, in flip, results in revolutionary options. 

Our Centre specialises in cutting-edge analysis areas, with a selected concentrate on car dynamics and the management of autonomous techniques.
