PhD Stipend in Multiscale Mechanical Modelling of Adhesive Joints in Large Composite Structures

3 days ago


Aalborg, Ålborg Kommune, Denmark Aalborg Universitet Full time
Job Description

The PhD project is a part of the NextGenBlade project, which aims to develop a strong and fatigue-resistant adhesive assembly concept for wind turbine blades and other large composite structures. The project is funded by the Independent Research Fund Denmark as a Sapere Aude project.

The PhD researcher will work on the modelling of the adhesive joint, developing a multiscale model of fatigue-driven damage on the length scales from μm to cm. The model will be combined with an existing FEM-based damage prediction framework. Experimental characterisation will be handled by another researcher in the project.

The ideal candidate has documented skills in the areas of modelling and analysis of laminated composite materials, machine learning, progressive damage/fracture simulation, cohesive zone modelling, and fracture mechanics. We are looking for a candidate who is self-driven, has good problem-solving skills, an excellent analytical mindset, and good collaborative skills.

The PhD scholarship includes a competitive salary, university and course participation fees, and relevant IT and laboratory costs. The project also covers the cost associated with traveling, participation in scientific conferences, and an external research stay at a university outside Denmark for 3-6 months.

Apply now to join our research group and contribute to the development of innovative solutions for wind turbine blades and other composite structures.
