DTU, Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering, the Section for Manufacturing Engineering invites applications for a PhD position (3 years) on the topic of simulation of corrosion fatigue life in AlSi10Mg based on microstructural characterizations.

The project is part of a Villum Investigator grant titled “Microstructural engineering of additive manufactured metals - MicroAM” funded by the VILLUM FONDEN. The overall aim of the project is to introduce microstructural engineering to the field of additive manufacturing (AM) of metals. This is to set the stage for optimizing metals microstructures in-situ during the AM process as well as ex-situ during post-AM treatments and enable predictions of the microstructural evolution, and thus changes in properties, while AM components are in use.

More specifically, the PhD position will look towards connecting different advanced software tools (of multi-physics and data-based models) simulating the metal AM process & microstructure with experimental observations of fatigue and corrosion fatigue failure in AM samples. The goal is to establish causal pathways for understanding failure in AM components. The position will involve development of codes/models simulating the nucleation and propagation of stress corrosion cracking in samples under low cycle fatigue conditions, as well as models for linking the microstructure from the AM process to the fatigue behavior. The position will involve active collaboration with international research groups working on the simulation of corrosion of metal AM, as well as close interaction with the other PhDs/Postdocs and more senior scientists within the MicroAM project.

Responsibilities and qualifications
If you are you interested in numerical simulations of advanced manufacturing processes which involve several physical phenomena and subsequent cross-linking of these simulations over different length-scales as well as linking simulations and experiments, perhaps you are our new PhD student. 

The aim is to predict the impact of external cyclic loads (during real-life loading scenarios under aggressive conditions) on the porosity and microstructural evolution in additively manufactured metallic samples, by the development of advanced computational multiphysics models of stress corrosion cracking and coupling these with process-microstructure models (being developed within MicroAM project). Main focus will be on additively manufactured AlSiMg alloys. You will be responsible for the development, calibration and validation of the corresponding advanced multi-physics computational models. You will collaborate closely with a postdoctoral researcher responsible for in-situ fatigue testing under corrosive environments, and will participate in the 4D (x,y,z,time) analysis of the AM microstructure and crack formation/propagation phenomena. In addition to the direct project related research, you will have the opportunity to disseminate your research through publication of papers and presentations at international conferences.

You will work in close collaboration with a group of senior scientists, as well as Postdocs and PhDs all engaged in the Villum Investigator project MicroAM. A 3–6-month foreign stay at an international research group focusing on microstructural modelling of corrosion in AM parts will be part of the PhD project. 

You must have a two-year master's degree (120 ECTS points) or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master's degree. 

Demonstrated competence in programming with Python and working on Linux based platform is essential for this position. Further, we are looking for a doctoral candidate who meets the following requirements:

• A background and strong interest in aluminum alloys, fatigue analysis, and numerical modelling is preferred. 
• Experience with computer aided design and engineering (CAE, e.g., Abaqus, Ansys) software tools commonly used in additive manufacturing, structural design and related research (e.g., parametric design tools, finite element simulation tools, path planning and slicing tools, etc.).
• Deep enthusiasm for conducting original research in an interdisciplinary and international team and strive for scientific excellence.
• Excellent communication skills in English (oral and written).
• Excellent communication abilities, social skills, and independent attitude paired with the ability to network and interact with relevant stakeholders.

We envision that:

• You have an open mind and can think creatively in a computational and/or programming context.
• You can participate in experimental investigations of stress corrosion cracking.
• You are interested in combining your physics-based modelling skills with data-driven analysis of experimental observations (or vice versa).
• You are eager to contribute to research on high international level, improve the ideas and test them by implementation.

Are you interested in biomaterials science and cell biology?

The TMAT group at DTU Health Tech is offering PhD positions within 3D bioprinting. 

Human tissue models based on stem cells provide new means for studying human health and disease in the lab. These systems may ultimately reduce the cost of drug development and accelerate biomedical research.

Multi-material 3D printing has recently emerged as a powerful tool for fabricating tissues at scale. Beyond the lab, bioprinted tissues may also be applied directly in generative medicine and autologous surgical procedures.

The f -elements of the periodic table play an essential role in numerous technologies, including catalysts, magnets, and photonic devices. Their distinct characteristics are intricately linked to the electronic configurations of the f -element ions, and any modifications in these configurations result in dramatic changes in their physical and chemical properties. The aim of the project is to bring about a paradigm shift in the design of switchable materials, by delving into the uncharted territory of f -element valence change (VC). The VC materials will be constructed using rigid metal-organic framework (MOF) structures, enabling them to exhibit rapid and cooperative responses to external stimuli such as temperature, pressure, and light. This conceptually new class of chameleonic materials exhibits prompt changes in magnetic, electronic, or optical properties upon stimuli and are promising candidates for applications in memory devices addressable by light, optoelectronics, and sensors. Likewise, the entangled nature of the photonic, electronic, and magnetic properties of the hypothesized materials may provide for entirely novel multifunctional materials, opening new horizons for advanced technologies.

Responsibilities and qualifications
The PhD project will focus on the design, synthesis, and characterization of new types of metal-organic network structures, which includes the detailed elucidation of atomic and electronic structures, and physical properties. The group is in possession of state-of-the-art diffraction instrumentation and single-crystal electron and X-ray crystallography, and the use of synchrotron facilities are central tools to the project. Furthermore, active dissemination of the obtained results, in scientific articles and through participation in international conferences, is an integral part of the job.

The collaborative project involves partners from the ESRF – The European Synchrotron and École Polytechnique.
The candidate should hold a MSc degree in chemistry with a strong focus on synthetic (inorganic) chemistry. Experience with handling and manipulation of air- and moisture sensitive compounds and crystallography are considered advantageous. The candidate should be highly motivated, able to work independently and should be confident in both written and spoken English. The applicant should strive towards scientific excellence, be ambitious, and seek to do science at the highest international level.
