Call for applications for Postdoctoral positionProfessor Edson Jansen Miranda Jr. (http://lattes.cnpq.br/9782653543954493) has 1 (one) position open for a postdoctoral position in the area of DYNAMICS AND VIBRATION OF COMPOSITE METAMATERIALS FOR AERONAUTICAL APPLICATION, in the Department of Mechanical and Materials (DMM) of the Federal Institute of Maranhão (IFMA).
The position is to work in a project funded by CNPq, specifically with modelling of dynamical systems, wave propagation, and passive vibration control applied to aeronautical engines. The researcher will have the opportunity to collaborate with outstanding research groups, mainly, in Brazil and Italy.
The candidate should have a doctorate degree in Mechanical Engineering or related areas. Knowledge and experience on finite element
modelling, wave propagation, periodic systems, mechanical vibration, composite materials, and signal processing are desired. Knowledge of MATLAB and good English are mandatory. Knowledge of COMSOL software, plane wave expansion (PWE) approach, and optimization techniques are differentials.
The scholarship is of R$ 4.500,00 (SET-C) from now until 17/11/2025 (the end of the project).
The interested should send the following documents to edson.jansen@ifma.edu.br. The documents are:
