Dr Negar Gilani and Professor Richard Hague The Centre for Additive Manufacturing (CfAM) Research Group within the Faculty of Engineering and the University of Nottingham invites applications for a 3-year PhD programme. We seek a student who could lead the maturation of the multi-metal MetalJet technique, which offers substantial prospects in the direct manufacturing of multi-functional metallic structures. The successful candidate will develop a comprehensive understanding of the Drop-on-demand Metal Jetting process and the compatibility of dissimilar materials within the printed structure. There is a particular interest in exploring novel designs and manufacturing techniques for cartridges used in producing molten droplets. An ideal candidate should have experience or a strong interest in additive manufacturing, materials science, and computational mechanics but also be adaptable to learning and exploring new disciplines as the project evolves. This research will be conducted within a wider research team comprising academics, post-doctoral researchers, and technical staff. This exciting research is industrially highly relevant and of great scientific interest, and therefore will offer the candidate the possibility to establish successful industrial and academic collaborations and disseminate at national and international conferences. Minimum Requirements

First or upper second-class academic qualification in Engineering or Physical Sciences or a related discipline. Some coding abilities in MATLAB and LabView. Creative thinking and the ability to work independently. Familiarity with Multiphysics simulation is a plus. Industry experience is advantageous.
