Research fellow position in modeling and optimization of structures based on smart and architected soft materials
A research fellow position is available at University of Pavia in Italy starting March 2025.
Objectives: The goal of this research program is three-fold: (i) constitutive modeling of stimuli-responsive; (ii) computational methods for the simulation and topology optimization of structures based on these materials; (iii) application of the developed models to the design of systems for the soft actuation, solar tracking, and energy harvesting fields. The interested candidate will have the possibility to run specific experiments on 4D printed samples to validate numerical results. This research is in collaboration with University of Trento and University of Naples Federico II.
