PhD Position in Bioinspired Grasper Design with Embodied Intelligence
2 maanden geleden
The future of manufacturing relies heavily on robotics, with robots executing multiple complex tasks. Graspers in pick&place robots typically grab objects and transport them to the next location. What if we can execute functionality during the pick & place operation?
In this project, we will design a grasper with embodied intelligence that can execute functional tasks while the object is in the pick & place operation. Examples include grasper with embodied multi-sensing capabilities for characterization and grasper with embodied actuation for positioning or ultrasonic welding.
This project consists of design of grasping functionality, smart structure modeling, and additive manufacturing for prototyping. Design, analysis, and experimental work for demonstration of the working principle are core aspects of the project.
We are looking for an enthusiastic PhD candidate to develop design methodology and demonstrate the working principle of a grasper with embodied intelligence for future factories. The outcomes of this project will be disseminated to the scientific community and to a general audience through presentations at (inter-)national conferences and through publications in peer-reviewed journals.
This project is part of a bigger project called "Aviation in Transition". The aviation sector faces an enormous challenge to become climate neutral by 2050. To this end, Aviation in Transition develops technology, products, and knowledge for which there is an upsurge in demand from the global market.
The PhD candidate will be supervised jointly by Dr. Jovana Jovanova from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Dr. Kunal Masania from the Shaping Matter Lab, in Faculty of Aerospace Engineering at Delft University of Technology.
Requirements- You hold or are about to obtain a MSc degree in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, or similar.
- You have a strong interest in smart structures and additive manufacturing.
- You are familiar with and interested in the use of smart materials to achieve embodied intelligence.
- You have a background in design, modeling, and prototyping.
- You are creative, take initiative, and enjoy working independently.
- You are research-oriented, inherently curious, versatile, and a fast learner.
- You enjoy scientific writing and presenting your work to others and having constructive discussions about scientific topics.
Any of the below is considered an advantage:
- Experience with adaptive structures modeling
- Experience with additive manufacturing
- Experience in smart structure integration
Please highlight your specific skills for this position explicitly in your motivation letter. Motivation letters that do not address any of these requirements will not be considered.
Conditions of EmploymentDoctoral candidates will be offered a 4-year period of employment in principle, but in the form of 2 employment contracts. An initial 1,5 year contract with an official go/no go progress assessment within 15 months. Followed by an additional contract for the remaining 2,5 years assuming everything goes well and performance requirements are met.
Salary and benefits are in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities, increasing from € 2872 per month in the first year to € 3670 in the fourth year. As a PhD candidate, you will be enrolled in the TU Delft Graduate School.
