普渡大学智能制造方向诚招全奖博士生和博后

普渡大学工程技术学院（智能制造方向） Dr. Xingyu Li 实验室诚招全奖博士生和博士后


The research of our lab aims at the novel design and operation of smart manufacturing systems with an emphasis on human-machine collaboration, digitalization, self-cognition, self-configuration, and self-optimization methodology. In particular, the research of our lab is shaped by the emerging trend toward cognitive, sustainable, reconfigurable, and human-centric automation in manufacturing systems. Current research focuses on maximally leveraging intelligent power from advanced manufacturing assets, i.e., sensors, robotics, machines, and vehicles, to continue the trend of improving the efficiency and practicality of smart manufacturing techniques in the presence of planetary boundaries, mass personalization, and societal goals. Our goal is to make the robots and machines less demanding in data collection and storage, more creative and responsive with human expertise and product variants, and easier to be accessed by small and medium enterprises and businesses. Such an approach will create a flexible and reconfigurable solution that provides training and assistance to workers on the shop floors to mitigate human errors and improve human skills during day-by-day operations.

We now have openings for two fully funded Ph.D./M.S. students (starting from Spring or Fall 2023) and one opening for a fully funded postdoctoral scholar (starting from Spring 2023). We also welcome research interns (remote or in-person) anytime. The prospective students will develop digital twin, machine learning, control, and optimization tool for machines and industrial robots, such as deep prognostic/diagnostics, process/configuration planning, multi-agent system, human-machine interaction and collaboration. The ideal candidate should have a strong interest in smart manufacturing, human-machine teaming, and autonomous systems, as well as a solid background in math, be comfortable in python/MATLAB programming and be willing to work with hardware. A Master’s degree in mechanical engineering, manufacturing/industrial engineering, or related engineering areas in robotics is preferred but not required.

Applicants who apply before December 22, 2021, and submit all requested materials, will get full consideration.

学校简介：
普渡大学(Purdue University)，是美国著名的工程大学，同时被认为是全球顶尖的工程学校之一。普渡大学拥有二十三个分校区，是著名的“公立常春藤”盟校成员，十大联盟创始成员，美国大学协会成员校。该校发展出了数项创新，包含世界上首台全电子电视、机器人的控制与远制技术等。普渡大学拥有13位诺贝尔奖得主。两弹元勋邓稼先、第一代火箭专家梁思礼、热能工程奠基人陈学俊和王补宣毕业于此。

西拉法叶分校是普渡大学旗舰分校，创建于1869年，现有12个学院和400多个实验室。该校主校区位列US News美国工程学院排名第4名，工业工程和制造专业第2名，机械工程专业第6名，以及美国最具创新力高校第3名。普渡工程技术学院是世界领先的学术学院，学院所构建的智能工厂和其他高科技制造设施使用系统无线，移动和互联网技术在网络上交换来自产品或过程的数据，创建数字孪生，从而来执行优化、识别瓶颈、纠正设计错误并探索流程调整。

普渡大学所在的西拉法叶市是个纯朴安静的大学城。横跨Wabash河，风景优美，生活便利，成本低，非常安全。距全美第三大城芝加哥约100英里，车程二小时；距该州首府、全美第十二大城印第安纳波利斯约65英里，车程约一小时。
