Research Fellow / Senior Research Fellow

Full Time Mounted Time period for twenty-four months

Interview Date: To be confirmed

Growing a mannequin for the neutralization course of in electron beam additive manufacturing machines – modelling dusty plasmas.

We’re looking for a self-motivated researcher to develop a a computational mannequin for the NeuBeam cost neutralisation course of. 

This analysis submit is a part of a considerable £1M multi-institutional analysis grant funded by an Innovate UK Sensible grant, with a main goal of implementing enhanced 2-D in-process monitoring by integrating Again Scattered electron Detection (BSD) into Wayland’s NeuBeam AM course of — enabling true real-time imaging of soften pool dynamics probably together with geometrical kind, soften pool temperature, soften pool cooling dynamics, and materials composition of the soften pool.

Profitable candidates shall be based mostly within the EPE Analysis Centre of the electronics and pc science division (http://www.orc.soton.ac.uk ), however will collaborate very intently with Wayland Additive, who will present the experimental information to check and validate the computational code for cost neutralisation of the powder mattress.

{Qualifications} for potential candidates embrace a strong background in electrical or digital engineering, physics or arithmetic coupled with experience within the numerical simulation of plasmas. A capability for vital analysis and interpretation of experimental information is essential. Desire shall be given to candidates with hands-on expertise of utilizing the SPIS code developed for area functions together with charging of lunar mud.

Candidates are anticipated to reveal:

• Robust analysis capabilities complemented by efficient teamwork expertise.
• Willingness and skill to contribute to the supervision of postgraduate college students.
• Wonderful communication and organisational expertise, together with a confirmed observe document in journal publications and convention shows.

Be part of us on this thrilling enterprise, the place your experience will contribute to advancing the sphere of additive manufacturing.

These positions are full-time, mounted time period as much as 2 years period. 

For casual enquiries of the place, please contact Prof Steve Gabriel
(e-mail: [email protected] ). 

Purposes for Analysis Fellow positions shall be thought-about from candidates who’re working in the direction of or nearing completion of a related PhD qualification. The title of Analysis Fellow shall be utilized upon profitable completion of the PhD. Previous to the qualification being awarded the title of Senior Analysis Assistant shall be given.
