1. Fully Funded PhD Position in Structural Engineering
Summary of PhD Program:
This PhD project focuses on the development of self-sensing fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (SS-FRCMs) for the dual purpose of structural strengthening and real-time health monitoring of infrastructure. The research is structured into two main areas: (1) material development and characterization to ensure optimal sensing and mechanical performance, and (2) structural evaluation of SS-FRCMs under environmental stressors such as freeze-thaw cycles and chloride exposure. Your work will contribute to more sustainable infrastructure by enabling proactive maintenance, reducing environmental impact, and minimizing the risk of unexpected structural failures.
Application Deadline: August 10, 2025
2. Fully Funded PhD Position in Soil Mechanics
Summary of PhD Program:
In cold regions, linear infrastructure is often affected by frost heave in the ground, which can lead to cracking and uneven deformation. Significant frost heave during the thawing period can also compromise the bearing capacity of the ground. In Sweden, this issue is most pronounced in the northern regions. Accurate frost heave prediction using the SSR model requires an SP value that is representative of the subgrade material type, the field freezing conditions, and the relevant geological context. SP values can be determined through advanced laboratory freezing tests; however, such tests are not always economically feasible.
