Offer DescriptionWe invite applications for a fully funded postdoctoral position focused on the mechanics and design of origami-based architected metamaterials. The research aims to develop theoretical and computational frameworks for the homogenization and continualization of origami tessellations, while simultaneously investigating metastructures composed of origami-inspired rotating units. The project bridges discrete folding architectures and continuum descriptions through coarse-grained kinematics, enriched mechanical models, and nonlinear multiscale formulations...
