Research Fellow in Numerical Modelling of Lightweight Aerospace Structures
4 months ago
FTE: 1 FTE (working 37 hours per week)
Duration of Contract: Fixed term (Ends May 2026)
Salary: UH7 £37,099 pa with potential to progress to £44,263pa by annual increments
Annual Leave: 35 days plus standard public holidays and an additional 4 days including the closure of our office between Christmas and New Year
Location: College Lane Campus, Hatfield
Main duties and responsibilities
You will contribute to the evolution of an ongoing research programme on the numerical modelling of lightweight aerospace structures subjected to impact loading. The post requires expert knowledge and experience in at least one of the following areas: development of numerical modelling tools; dynamic response (crashworthiness, impact loading) of lightweight structures (aerospace, automotive preferably); advanced modelling techniques such as multi-scale modelling or task-based parallelism; modelling of manufacturing processes such as additive manufacturing, resin infusion, welding. Contribution to research publications and proposals, helping to manage and direct the project as opportunities allow. You may contribute to the further development of high speed impact test facility (birstrike, ice and debris impact) and may be given the opportunity to contribute to relevant teaching.
You will be expected to undertake research within the scope of the project, establishing a programme of research activity working with collaboratively colleagues at UH and partner organisations. You will seek external funding, disseminating the outcomes of the project in publications, at conferences and other media. You will create opportunities to maximise research activities, capturing relevant evidence to support impact and engage with external stakeholders.
Skill and experience required
You will require experience in software development for numerically solving solid mechanics problems and/or in application of advanced modelling techniques for lightweight structures or manufacturing processes.
You will require excellent computer skills such as simulations software use e.g. hydrocodes such as LS-Dyna, programming e.g. Fortran, C++, svn, CMake and data processing skills e.g. Matlab, Python.
Qualifications required
Undergraduate honours degree (or equivalent) in a relevant discipline and a PhD or close to completion of PhD or equivalent qualification, (no more than 3 months prior to viva) in a relevant subject area, or equivalent experience.
Please view the job description and person specification for a full list of the duties and essential criteria. Please attach a personal statement showing clearly how your skills and experience match the Person Specification.
An appointment to this role may require an Academic Technology Approval Scheme (ATAS) certificate.
