A propos du centre ou de la direction fonctionnelle
The Inria Rennes - Bretagne Atlantique Centre is one of Inria's eight centres and has more than thirty research teams. The Inria Center is a major and recognized player in the field of digital sciences. IT is at the heart of a rich R&D and innovation ecosystem : highly innovative PMEs, large industrial groups, competitiveness clusters, research and higher education players, laboratories of excellence, technological research institute, etc.
Contexte et atouts du poste
The recruited researcher will join a multi-disciplinary team involving established, full-time research scientists of all ages, MSc, PhD and postdocs (~30 ppl). The training programme intends to prepare candidates for scientific positions, either in academia or industry, by working in a research-intensive environment which fosters both scientific excellence (world-class researchers and over 65 prestigious ERC grants) and entrepreneurship (over 200 startups launched and a dedicated Inria Startup Studio). You will also have access to an extensive portfolio of training courses on digital science and technology, scientific programming or Artificial Intelligence. You will BE recruited by Inria in the Beaulieu Scientific Campus of University of Rennes, Bretagne (France), a medium town (~220.000 inhabitants) close from Paris and from the SEA, with an intense student life (25% of the population). Rennes was ranked 1st city in France for quality of life and 8th most attractive city in Europe.
Mission confiée
This PhD project aims for an advance in the simulation and design of metamaterials - engineered structures with unique physical properties surpassing natural materials. IT aims to develop automated finite element methods to enhance numerical modeling, focusing on precision and efficiency in simulations while enabling predictive design of adaptive systems. The research targets critical defense technologies, including stealth, cloaking, and wave manipulation, with applications spanning multispectral furtivity, dynamic resilience, and active wave modulation, relevant to both defense and civilian contexts.
Metamaterials leverage microstructural periodicity to control electromagnetic, acoustic, or mechanical waves, offering strategic capabilities like broadband signature reduction or shock absorption. Symmetry is central to this work and a key property of periodic structures that governs wave behavior. By exploiting symmetries, the project seeks to optimize computational performance and deepen insights into metamaterial functionality.
The supervising team is pioneering wave propagation methods for periodic structures and associated computational challenges, providing top-tier expertise. Integrating mathematics, computer science, finite element techniques, computer graphics and mechanics, the research addresses complex simulation demands. Potential impacts include stealth coatings for aircrafts, adaptive armors, predictive monitoring techniques, and wave-modulating systems for stealth.
Hosted in a leading research environment, this PhD offers a chance to drive metamaterial innovation with broad implications, collaborating with experts in wave-based computational methods.
Principales activités
This PhD, focused on advancing metamaterial simulation through symmetry analysis, seeks motivated MSc (or soon-to-be) graduates with the following qualifications :
- Graduation Topics : Ideal candidates have backgrounds in computational mechanics, applied mathematics, and/or advanced scientific computing. Relevant MSc-level curricula include computational mechanics or physics, computer science, or finite element methods. Experience implementing numerical methods in high-level programming languages (e.g., Matlab, Python, Julia) is essential.
- Academic Excellence : A very good curriculum with top-class grades.
- Computer Literacy : Proficiency - and interest - in navigating advanced algorithms and theoretical concepts, with outstanding problem-solving capabilities.
