**Design things differently**:
**Research Fellow in Meta Materials and Design**:
**Salary: Grade 524 (£31,607 p.a.)**

**36-month fixed-term contract** (end date: June 2027)

**About the Role**:
The 4D Materials and Printing Lab in the Department of Engineering at Nottingham Trent University (NTU) is seeking to recruit a Research Fellow for the EPSRC funded research project: Integrated Material-Modelling-Manufacturing paradigm for Mechanical Meta-regulators (I5M). The research programme is led by NTU in partnership with Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre, National Composites Centre, Manufacturing Technology Centre, NHS Nottingham University Hospitals, Far-UK Ltd, General Lattice, RHEON LABS, and the UK Metamaterial Network.

The vision of I5M project is to exploit inherent energy dissipation features of Hyper-ThermoVisco-Pseudoelastic (HTVP) materials and develop a novel Integrated Material-Modelling-Manufacturing paradigm to create a new class of Mechanical metamaterials, so-called Meta-regulators (I5M) with mínimal computational cost, material usage and expert interference. It aims to provide a fundamental understanding of HTVP behaviours, formulate finite element solutions for analysing meta-regulators, and develop inverse design tools and guidelines to achieve targeted properties. The I5M develops metamaterials with programmable quasi-zero stiffness, quasi-constant force regulation, tuneable vibration isolation and fatigue-tolerant features fabricated by sustainable 3D printing.

**About Us**:
The School of Science and Technology at Nottingham Trent University (NTU) is an exciting multidisciplinary environment for learning, teaching and research, with some of the best facilities in the UK.
