This new technology utilises flexible and compliant materials in its design to translate fundamental biological principles into new engineering rules, combining life-like components into structures that create robotic systems that perform much like natural systems. 

This ARIA-funded research project () aims to create a new analytical framework involving model- and learning-based approaches and their subsequent integration, opening new horizons in understanding the fundamental characteristics, dynamics, and internal physical interactions of soft robotic manipulators that we have created but are yet to fully understand their behaviour. The new knowledge generated and the research outcomes will lead to the creation and exploitation of next-generation intelligent and dexterous soft manipulators to allow innovation and growth to maximise their economic and societal benefits.

The Research Associate will be responsible for delivering high-quality research on topics, including:

• Develop model and learning based approaches for modelling soft robotic manipulators and systems
• Develop the analytical framework for modelling, understanding, and developing dexterous soft robotic manipulators.
• Framework integration and experimental validations.
• Collaboration with the co-designers in the ARIA group.

To help us understand how the soft manipulators that we build behave during motion, and develop effective analytical framework for modelling, predicting, controlling, and understanding these soft robotic systems

This role will suit you if you 

• Hold a PhD degree in a subject area of direct relevance to the project. 
• Have previous experience in one or more of the following: modelling, design, control or prototyping of robotic components and systems. 
• Have excellent analytical, problem-solving, and project management skills
• Are self-motivated and have excellent communication skills. 

You will be working with an interdisciplinary research team and collaborating with ARIA creators and partners. Whilst being responsible for planning and conducting research activities and are expected to take an active role in the laboratory. You should possess excellent interpersonal and communication skills to work effectively as part of a team and present your work to diverse audiences.
