**PhD position in the field of Sound Quality of Acoustic Metamaterials**

Siemens Industry Software NV (SISW) is a leading research-driven company developing simulation and measurement tools for industry. This includes software, hardware and services for the design, optimisation, manufacturing and monitoring of machines, vehicles, components and materials. The headquarters and research centre are located in Leuven, Belgium, and the company is part of the Siemens group, with representatives across the globe. The research topics at SISW include structural dynamics, acoustics, aeronautics and aerospace, durability, materials and numerical solvers, among others.

The Acoustics research team in the Test Division in Leuven is offering a PhD position in the field of meta materials for vibration and sound reduction as part of the METAVISION doctoral training network.

**About the METAVISION European project**:
**PhD track**:
**The goals of the PhD are**:

- to develop a model-based framework for the experimental characterisation of meta-materials,
- to develop a psychoacoustic pleasantness model suited for meta-materials,
- to guide material design from specific psychoacoustic targets through optimization techniques and machine learning
- to validate the findings using acoustic measurements, sophisticated signal processing and listening tests.

**Profile**:

- a master's degree in engineering, physics or mathematics,
- knowledge and/or experience with at least one of the following: acoustics, signal processing, mathematical modelling, experimental methods in acoustics.
- proficiency in written and spoken English,
- knowledge of a scientific computing language such as Python, GNU Octave or Matlab,
- the ability to work independently and to cooperate with other researchers,
- the ability to perform research in a scientifically meticulous and structured manner,

    **Research Project**: “Linking human-specific synaptic developmental timing to early cortical circuit function and plasticity in ASD” This project addresses a compelling hypothesis: that disruption in the uniquely human prolonged timeline of synapse development—synaptic neoteny—contributes to ASD. The project will explore how SYNGAP1...

    **Research topic**: Whereas mutations are the driving force for adaptive evolution, many genetic alterations exert negative fitness effects. The effect of some mutations can be buffered by the activity of specific genes encoded elsewhere in the genome. These so-called buffering genes give rise to mutational robustness which implies that a phenotype remains...
