CSIRO Postdoctoral Fellowship in Modelling of Wire-Arc Additive Manufacturing

 

The Opportunity

  • Are you ready for the next step in your career?
  • Develop develop advanced simulations of the wire-arc additive manufacturing process
  • Join CSIRO and support Australia's premier scientific organisation!

CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Postdoctoral Fellowships provide opportunities to scientists and engineers who have completed their doctorate and have less than three years of relevant postdoctoral work experience. These fellowships aim to develop the next generation of future leaders of the innovation system.

In this position the successful candidate will join a large team with expertise in computational modelling of metal and plasma processes, with a focus on metal additive manufacturing. You will draw on existing tools for modelling of plasma and liquid flows and metal properties, to develop advanced simulations of the wire-arc additive manufacturing process. The goal is to develop a model that reliably predicts all stages of part production, including flow in the arc plasma and the melt pool, and the evolving temperature distributions in the part.

Your duties will include:

  • Carry out innovative, impactful research of strategic importance to CSIRO that will, where possible, lead to novel and important scientific outcomes.
  • Assess different approaches to computational modelling of wire-arc additive manufacturing, including computational fluid dynamics, smoothed-particle hydrodynamic and finite-element modelling.

Location: Lindfield (Sydney), NSW
Salary: AU$86k - AU$94k plus up to 15.4% superannuation
Tenure: Specified term of 3 years
Reference: 71513

To be considered you will need:

  • A doctorate (or will shortly satisfy the requirements of a PhD) in a relevant discipline area, such as Physics, Engineering, Materials Science, Computer Science or Applied Mathematics.

Please note: To be eligible for this role you must have no more than 3 years (or part time equivalent) of postdoctoral research experience.

  • Demonstrated experience in computational modelling of fluid flow.
  • Demonstrated experience in multi-physics and multi-scale computational modelling.
  • Demonstrated working knowledge of programming in a high-level language.
  • High level written and oral communication skills with the ability to represent the research team effectively internally and externally, including the presentation of research outcomes at national and international conferences.
  • A sound history of publication in peer-reviewed journals and/or authorship of scientific papers, reports, grant applications or patents.
  • A record of science innovation and creativity, including the ability and willingness to incorporate novel ideas and approaches into scientific investigations.
