About this position

Griffith University is recruiting a prospective PhD student in metamaterials and auxetics, with a strong preference for applicants who can contribute to finite element modelling, computational mechanics, continuum mechanics, and/or machine learning.

The post is shared by Zia Javanbakht, Senior Lecturer at Griffith University, and the lab website indicates that this is an active PhD recruitment call. The research environment includes topics such as multi-layered semi-auxetics for energy-absorbing applications and modelling fibre-reinforced composites, with micromechanical models, computational techniques, and experimental validation all highlighted as relevant directions.

According to the positions page, there are currently no vacancies for post-doc or Research Fellow positions. The page also states that only self-funded Master's and PhD students are considered. For PhD applicants, the lab requests a short email (maximum 150 words) titled “PhD application (auxeticslab)”, along with a CV, Bachelor’s and Master’s transcripts, your topic of interest (metamaterials or auxetics), your expertise in computational/continuum mechanics or machine learning, and one best publication.

No deadline is stated in the post or on the linked positions page. Interested candidates should follow the application instructions in the linked post/page and submit the requested materials directly.

Funding details
