5. Fully Funded PhD Position in Particle Engineering

Summary of PhD Program:

This position is a part of European Doctoral Training Network project CONTRABASS (DC Project 2 – “carbonation of magnesium silicates and synergy with calcium silicates”). Cement is one of the biggest polluters and responsible for 8% of all anthropogenic CO2 emissions. At the same time, cement offers an optimal carbon capture and storage (CCU) opportunity due to massive volumes and favourable chemistry. Your research will concentrate on developing advanced cement-like materials, focusing on chemical reactions, microstructure and material properties. Your task will be to carry out multidisciplinary research with state-of-the art methods, including laboratory work, inorganic material analyses, as well as computer modelling.

8. Fully Funded PhD Position in Physical metallurgy and Modelling

Summary of PhD Program:

The doctoral researcher will join the Materials and Mechanical Engineering (MME) research unit to work mainly on experimentation, and characterization of steel microstructures after thermomechanical processes. Also, the research will involve some use of numerical simulation tools (heat transfer, conduction, and phase transformations). The present work is connected to the EU funded project, AI Powered Characterization and Modelling for Green Steel Technology (AID4GREENEST). In addition, it is important that the doctoral researcher takes care of handling the obtained data in appropriate format so that it can be used by other research partners during and after the project. This will enable the use of AI tools, developed by the research partners, for predicting microstructure evolution. The fast models can then be applied for predicting the steel microstructure after processing.
