KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm has grown to become one of Europe’s leading technical and engineering universities, as well as a key centre of intellectual talent and innovation. We are Sweden’s largest technical research and learning institution and home to students, researchers and faculty from around the world. Our research and education covers a wide area including natural sciences and all branches of engineering, as well as in architecture, industrial management, urban planning, history and philosophy.

We are looking for a PhD candidate to work on numerical modelling of composites manufacturing. Automation drives down the production cost in composites manufacturing. The project focus on self-learning process modelling coupled with real-time pressure field monitoring. The integrated virtual-physical approach aims for : (1) real-time prediction of defect formation, and (2) real-time optimisation of process correction parameters. Self-learning process modelling is the enabling technology towards smart factory.

Remuneration

Hi, I am working on Continum damage mechanics based on crack band theory. The damage initiation is based on Hashin-Rotem theory. I am trying to simulate damage in composite laminates.

I need to store crtical values of stress and strains when Hashin-Rotem equations reaches one (when failure initiates). Is any one aware of getting unique value of critical stress and strains ?  

We invite applications for a post-doctoral researcher position in the general area of computational design. 

Candidates with strong background in isogeometric analysis, finite element analysis, structural optimization, and/or high-performance computing are encouraged to apply.
