Research Associate for Design Optimization in Soft Robotics
Background
This is a new project taken in the smart manufacturing group led by Prof. Charlie Wang. The project aims to enable a deformable mannequin to facilitate the customised garment production for different body shapes by employing the many more degree-of-freeform deformation that can be provided by a soft robotic system rather than conventional robots with rigid bodies. This research will be conducted in the Department of Mechanical, Aerospace and Civil Engineering at the University of Manchester, and is funded by UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).
Overall Purpose of the Job
The role of the Research Associate is to work on the simulation technology as controllable deformation and the geometric optimisation of chamber design; meanwhile, this Research Associate will help the other Research Associate in the same project to complete the design and fabrication of mannequins. Candidate should have a BEng / MSc / PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering / Computer Science or Applied Mathematics and strong research record in computational design, advanced manufacturing, geometric modelling, or robotics. Excellent skills in C++ programming and mathematics formulation are expected. There are two posts available.
