Postdoctoral Researcher in Real-Time Computational Biomechanics

Your role

You will join the Legato group, recognised internationally as a leading team in computational mechanics and surgical simulation, and work in tight collaboration with ARSPECTRA, world leader in medical AR glasses and navigation platforms. The focus of this position is the development of real-time, trustworthy biomechanical simulations for brain and skull, suitable for deployment on ARSPECTRA devices.

You will work at the interface between finite-element modelling, software engineering and embedded/edge computing.

Key Responasbilities:

• Develop and optimise finite-element models, e.g. Poisson, linear elasticity, large-deformation soft tissue, for real-time execution on AR devices and GPUs
• Implement these models within open-source frameworks such as SOFA, FEniCSx and SOniCS; experience with SOFA is a strong plus
• Design adaptive, error-controlled strategies that balance accuracy a...
