invites applications for recruitment of Junior Research Fellow

Junior Research Fellow

Number of Vacancy: 1 Posts

Educational Qualification: M.E/M.Tech

Applications are invited from motivated and eligible candidates for a junior research fellow (JRF) position in the research project supported by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) under the RESPOND program (Project No: ISRO/RES/3/909/21-22). The details of the project are given below:

1. Position: Junior Research Fellow (JRF)

2. Number of Position (s): One

3. Title of The Project: Development of Microstructure-Property-Processing Correlations for nickel based superalloys

4. Tenure of Project: Maximum 2 years or till end of the project, whichever is earlier

5. Job Description (in maximum of 100 words):

a) The material in the fabrication condition will be subjected to various thermal or thermomechanical cycles. The integrated computational material engineering (ICME), along with a physical simulation of the manufacturing process, can accelerate the optimum processing condition.

b) In this study, the simulation tools will be used to screen out the experimental trials and simulation guided experiments will be conducted. The processing maps and forming limit diagram will be generated at different processing conditions. The detailed characterization can be carried out using XRD, SEM, EPMA, TEM, APT and precipitation kinetics study will lead to the establishment of TTT diagram.

6. Essential Qualification: M.Tech./ME in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering/Mechanical Engineering/ Materials Engineering or equivalent selected through a process described through any one of the following:

(a) Scholars who are selected through National Eligibility Tests - CSIR-UGC NET including lectureship (Assistant Professorship) or GATE

(b) The selection process through National level examinations conducted by Central Government Departments and their Agencies and institutions such as DST, DBT, DAE, DOS, DRDO, MHRD, ICAR, ICMR, IIT, IISc, IISER etc. The candidate should have defended M.Tech./ME thesis dissertation or is going to defend M.Tech./ME thesis dissertation in AY 2021-22.

7. Desirable Qualification: Knowledge and experience in thermodynamic simulation, casting process and material characterization

8. Fellowship: Rs. 31,000 per month + HRA (as per institute rules)
