About us

Research Topic – Manufacture of Aerospace Structures using Automated Fibre Placement.

Department:                  Centre for Future Materials, University of Southern Queensland, Australia

Classification:              PhD (Higher degree by research) in the following area

We are looking for a PhD candidate to work on numerical modelling of composites manufacturing. Automation drives down the production cost in composites manufacturing. The project focus on self-learning process modelling coupled with real-time pressure field monitoring. The integrated virtual-physical approach aims for : (1) real-time prediction of defect formation, and (2) real-time optimisation of process correction parameters. Self-learning process modelling is the enabling technology towards smart factory.
