PhD student position in experimental fluid dynamics, shock-wave physics and X-ray imaging for biomedical applications
vor 2 Wochen
Job description
We seek to appoint a PhD student to conduct experimental research to investigate the role of cavitation in shock wave lithotripsy . You will be part of an exciting collaboration between ETHZ and ESRF.
You will design your experimental setup by exploiting the state-of-the-art ultra-high-speed imaging, optical and acoustic facilities available in the lab at ETHZ, where you will spend 50% of the project duration. In addition to research, you will contribute to teaching and lab activities in the institute at ETH Zurich.
At the ESRF, you will join the ID19 beamline for the other 50% of the project duration to harness the world-unique abilities of single bunch and ultra-fast in-situ X-ray imaging combining them with multiscale X-ray microtomography to study the cavitation-induced damage and identify the key role of damage promotion, decoupling the contribution of sound waves and cavitation cloud dynamics. You will work along the way on developing original imaging protocols and quantitative data processing methodologies exploiting the coherence properties of EBS source with intense narrow-bandwidth single bunch illumination allowing the detailed study of fast dynamics of cavitation at spatio-temporal microscales.
Profile
The requirements include a Master's degree in mechanical, aeronautical, or biomedical engineering, physics, material science or a related field. You should be curiosity-driven, creative, open-minded and independent, and have good communication skills, fluency in English and the willingness to fully commit yourself as a part of an international team. The ability to work with people from different areas of expertise is important. You should also have strong interests in experimental fluid mechanics, multi-phase flows, solid mechanics, shock physics, acoustics, biomedical engineering, and/or similar. Experience in experimental research is an advantage, but not necessary. However, you should be excited about the prospect of working in a lab and in a large-scale research facility.
