PhD position: self-emerging architected materials

Vor 2 Tagen


Zürich, Schweiz Institute for Building Materials Vollzeit

Job description

The successful candidate will develop numerical and theoretical models for the self-assembly process and the emergence of the microstructure. She/he will evaluate the mechanical properties of the resulting microstructure with numerical simulations using in-house codes and high-performance computing systems. He/she will analyze the produced data to determine the factors leading to desired material properties and establish knowledge that provides the scientific basis for the synthesis of self-emerging architected materials. If successful, the design concepts will be implemented experimentally (potentially with external collaborators) to demonstrate the potential of this manufacturing strategy.

Profile

You hold an MSc degree in mechanics, physics, (civil, mechanical, aerospace, or bio-) engineering, material science, or a related discipline and have a background in solid mechanics, applied physics and mathematics, computational sciences, or a related field. Additionally, you have prior programming experience and are fluent in English (oral and written). You show enthusiasm for conducting original research in an interdisciplinary and international team, and you strive for scientific excellence.
