UniDistance Suisse offers fully online university degree programmes and is accredited under the Swiss Higher Education Act (HEdA). It combines flexible, location-independent part-time distance learning with an active, interdisciplinary research culture on its campus in Brig. Across five faculties – Law, Psychology, Business and Economics, History, and Mathematics & Computer Science – we have been shaping modern teaching, learning and research for more than 30 years. Today, UniDistance Suisse counts over 2,700 students and around 550 staff members.

The recently approved SNF project, entitled “Numerical Methods for Efficient Acoustic Metamaterial Design” aims to design acoustic metamaterials which are used to manipulate sound waves, with the objective of, for instance, mitigating sound within the audible frequency spectrum. For the optimal design of such metamaterials our goal is to optimise models from (mixed) boundary/finite element discretisations. This leads to very rich structures in the underlying linear systems of equations. The aim of the project consists of fully exploiting these structures for efficient matrix storage as well as in the numerical solution techniques. These techniques will open up the possibility to apply parametric model reduction methods which are the basis for determining an optimal acoustic metamaterial. The project will be carried with our project partner Prof. Dr Steffen Marburg (Chair of Vibroacoustics of Vehicles and Machines, Technical University of Munich, Germany).

We are looking for a:
