Description
Alfred University seeks qualified applicants to work in the area of ultra high temperature ceramic synthesis, processing and characterization. The project spans 5 individual project areas, with postdoctoral research associates needed with the following skillset: Additive manufacturing of carbide ceramics with Al/ML optimization (1 or 2 openings) Candidates with experience in materials science, mechanical engineering and related fields will perform additive manufacturing of ceramics and composites with feedback control. The successful candidate(s) will extend our well-established direct-write (robocasting) extrusion-based 3D printing methods to: include active machine learning/image processing feedback controls, improve on synthesis and processing of colloidal materials explore new 3D printing methods for different materials (ceramics, composites) perform characterization and properties measurements of the printed parts, in a continuous improvement feedback loop to engineer specific shapes with application-specific property optimization. Experience in AM system design, electronic control, and programing are valuable, as is experience in AM for ceramics. The PDRAs will work closely with faculty, other postdocs, laboratory technicians, graduate students and scientists from outside laboratories. Alfred University actively subscribes to a policy of equal employment opportunity, and will not discriminate against any employee, student or applicant because of race, age, sex, color, sexual orientation, gender identification or expression, physical or mental disability, religion, ancestry or national origin, marital status, genetic information, military or veteran status, domestic violence victim status, criminal conviction status, political affiliation or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.
Responsibilities
The postdoctoral research associates will perform additive manufacturing of ceramics and composites with feedback control. They will extend existing 3D printing methods and explore new techniques for different materials.
