Research Associate in Ultrasonic Non-Destructive Testing

The Ultrasonics and Non-Destructive Testing (UNDT) research group at the University of Bristol seeks a Research Associate to contribute to a project developing a 3D ultrasonic imaging framework for characterising critical microstructural locations in polycrystalline materials. The role involves optimising and validating ultrasonic microstructural characterisation methods, performing experimental material testing, and supporting numerical modelling and ultrasonic measurements. Candidates should have a PhD (or near completion) in Materials Science, Engineering, Physics, or a closely related field, with demonstrated expertise in ultrasonic non-destructive testing and conventional microstructure characterisation techniques.
