Announcements and news

04/02/2024 We are currently seeking candidates for two PhD scholarships to join our team in October 2024.

1. PhD Position in Robotics for Flexible Manufacturing: The aim of this PhD is to develop new human cognition inspired algorithms that can learn how humans complete manufacturing tasks while dealing with variations in the environment as well as how they transfer learnt skills between tasks to solve problems. This would involve collaborating with our partners in Psychology, Computer Science, the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre at Sheffield as well as the Institute of High Performance Computing in Singapore (https://www.a-star.edu.sg/).

2. PhD Project on Physics Informed Machine Learning for Precise Flow Process Control: This PhD would investigate various methodologies for use in simulating flow processes particularly for nanoparticle synthesis. Potential methodologies include the use of generative AI, reinforcement learning and physics-informed machine learning. The successful candidate would also interface with hardware platforms in order to validate the developed methodologies.
