Job description

We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher who has a suitable background and motivation to work on highly innovative projects and be trained in competitive yet collaborative research and study environments. The position requires a genuine interest in research and knowledge of material science, manufacturing technologies, and advanced engineering design methods. The candidate will need to research, develop, and apply modern methodologies for integrated material, manufacturing process, and engineering design.

The postdoctoral researcher will support the research activities withing the recent project funded by Academia of Finland “Multi-disciplinary Digital Design and Manufacturing (D2M)”. To accomplish this task, we seek a highly motivated and talented researchers who will support us to develop new and to extend existing design tools to developed highly integrated material-process- design workflows.

J Intell Manuf (2022). https: // doi.org/10.1007/s10845-022-02010-2

Research areas (RA): The research area is in Digital Design and Manufacturing (D2M) at TUNI. We do not expect that you are an expert in all these research areas, but your study record and personal interest need to relate to at least one RA, and you need to show interest to explore other RAs in your motivation letter.

RA#1: Product design using numerical simulation and computational mechanics (e.g., Multiscale modelling, FEA, CFD, CAD, CAE, generative design, design automation, topology optimization…). Develop finite element (FE) modeling tools for physics-based forward simulation of products and applications to derive data-driven surrogate models using classical surface response method (RSM) and/or machine learning (ML) models and invert the design space from performance to process and material.

RA#2: Material and manufacturing process optimization, Design of Experiments (DOE), Statistical process control, and process modelling for advanced manufacturing, additive manufacturing, hybrid machines and processes. Develop manufacturing process data-driven models, using DOEs and surrogate models, multidisciplinary design optimization, and ML/AI predictive models for material characterization and process interactions.

RA#3: Sustainable Manufacturing , LCA, and digital manufacturing (e.g., Green digital twins in design and manufacturing processes). Develop integrated forecasting tools to assess the impact of engineering choices in performance, time, cost, energy consumption, and footprint of integrated material-process-design workflows.

Project background

Increasing efficiency by digital technologies will reduces materials usage and environmental footprint. Manufacturing activity is responsible for 54% of the world's energy consumption and 20% of global CO2 emissions. A promising solution to sustainability lies at the interfaces between material sciences, digital manufacturing, and advanced engineering design methods. Additive manufacturing (aka. 3D printing) is inherently a digital process that enables disruptive workflows, emerging as a frontier in the advancement of scientific research. The scientific objective of this research is to develop modelling frameworks, computer-aided expert systems, and software solutions for multi-scale and multi-disciplinary simulation and optimization in digital design and manufacturing. This project explores functional materials and tailors geometrical compositions while assessing real-time the impact of engineering choices in performance, time, cost, energy consumption, and footprint.

Requirements

We require: Applicable PhD in a relevant field. The degree must be completed before the end of the application period.

Essential Requirements: The candidate has an analytical mindset with strong computer skills. Knowledge and research experience and a solid publication track in areas related to computational science, mechanical engineering, engineering design, material science, solid mechanics, computational mechanics, or related complementary fields.

Desired Requirements: Experience in applied mathematics using MATLAB, Python, Java, or C++. Experience with finite element modelling of machines or products and manufacturing process optimization. Proficient in oral and written English and experience in academic publishing. Open-minded, good interpersonal skills, ability to supervise M.Sc. and PhD students (for the postdoc fellow applicants), and experience of participating in research projects.

We offer

The position will be filled for a fixed-term period of 2 years with the possibility to extension. The preliminary planned starting date is between April to September 2023 or as mutually agreed. A trial period of six months applies to all our new employees. The salary will be based on the job requirements and the employee's performance following the Finnish University Salary System. The position of Postdoctoral Research is placed on the job demand levels 5-6. A typical starting salary for Postdoctoral Research Fellow around 3400-3600 EUR/month.

We offer a wide range of staff benefits, such as occupational health care, flexible working hours, excellent sports facilities, and several on-campus restaurants and cafés with staff discounts. Please read more about working at Tampere University.
