Posted: 17 July 2026 - Brighton, United Kingdom
As a postdoctoral research fellow, you will participate in an industry-funded project and perform numerical studies, developing tools for finite element software interaction. The role aims to establish principles for using friction dampers in rotating machinery to mitigate resonance under nonlinear vibrations. Candidates should have a PhD in Mechanical, Automotive, Aerospace, or Materials Engineering, with expertise in finite element analysis, Python-ANSYS interfaces, and optimization methods. The position is fixed term until April 2029, with a closing date for applications on July 30, 2026.
