Masters of Engineering Scholarship Available

IMaR is currently offering a Masters Scholarship to a suitable candidate who will investigate an industrial Internet of Things project around sensor deployment, data analytics and AI on industrial machinery. The project is funded by SFI Confirm: Smart Manufacturing Research Centre in collaboration with a major multinational industrial partner.

This project will focus of the development of sensing and data analytics to enable Predictive Maintenance (PdM) in legacy industrial machines, focusing on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques which can allow for the rapid re-training of analytic algorithms to account for machine variability.

Applicants are required to have a minimum qualification of an Honours Degree (2.1 or better) in Computer Science, Engineering, Applied Physics, or equivalent. Familiarity with Python, R or a similar language is desirable.

This 2 year Masters scholarship will cover all postgraduate student fees and provide a monthly stipend to cover living expenses. A budget for equipment, material and travel will also be provided.

PhD Scholarship Opportunity – BioEngineering / Engineering

The IMaR Research Centre at IT Tralee are recruiting for a PhD. position with full scholarship (full fees and an attractive stipend of €18,000 per annum) in the following area; 1 X Clinical Engineering / BioEngineering, specifically analysis and optimisation of the Total Hip Arthoplasty process. This research is funded by Science Foundation Ireland through Lero: The Irish Software Research Centre, in collaboration with the Bon Secours Hospital Group. The closing date for applications for these positions is Friday July 13th 2018. PhD Position [4 Years]: 1 X Clinical Engineering / Bioengineering The ideal candidate with have a Level 8 (Degree (Hons)) in a Clinical, Mechanical or Electronic Engineering or Physics (or a similar disciple), with an understanding of Biomechanical (or similar) systems and/or signal processing techniques. This project intends to investigate and develop a suitable method to objectively detect the correct reaming and seating of a hip joint in-vivo to ensure optimum results for a Total Hip Arthoplasty and minimise the patient’s hospital stay and avoid re-admittance due to problems arising from joint seating. Going forward, advancements in robotic technology will allow many surgical procedures to be undertaken by autonomous systems. A vital component of such a system for THA will be the correct detection of the correct interference fit between the reaming chisel / artificial joint and the out bone. This research project will seek to 1) establish whether audio (vibrational) resonances can be used as a guide to improve outcomes in hip replacement surgery, and 2) to develop the optimum means of analyzing such resonances to determine the moment of optimum seating of the new hip joint.
