Postdoctoral Researcher in AI-Based Flight Control Systems
4 weeks ago
The Computational Engineering and Design (CED) Research Group at the University of Southampton is seeking a highly skilled postdoctoral researcher to join our Flight Dynamics and Control Research Laboratory. As a key member of our team, you will be working under the supervision of Dr Sergio Araujo-Estrada and Prof James Scanlan on the project "Adaptive AI Flight Controller for Improved Flight Characteristics".
Key Responsibilities- Conduct flight dynamics characterisation experiments for two UAV platforms using our state-of-the-art R J Mitchell wind tunnel.
- Develop a flight dynamics simulation model and train an adaptive neural flight controller using our High Performance Computing facility Iridis.
- Conduct physical flight tests to assess the performance of the adaptive neural flight controller in close collaboration with our project partner Luffy AI.
To be successful in this role, you will have or be close to completing a PhD in flight dynamics, simulation and control or a closely-related engineering field. Experience in aircraft flight dynamics modelling, simulation, and control, as well as developing AI-based control solutions is critical. Experience in wind tunnel and physical flight testing is desirable. Strong communication and language skills, as evidenced by publications and presentations, are essential.
What We OfferThe University of Southampton is committed to creating an environment where everyone can thrive. We offer a generous holiday allowance, additional university closure days, and a flexible working approach. As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to work with a vibrant group of researchers and students, and contribute to cutting-edge research in AI-based flight control systems.
