We are a young, innovative university located in the heart of the Ruhr metropolis. We pride ourselves in outstanding research and teaching, think in terms of opportunities rather than limitations and develop ideas with a view to the future. Diversity is an integral part of our culture as we promote potential and are committed to upholding genuine equity in education.
At the Campus Essen, Faculty for Engineering, Institute of Engineering Mathematics, the University of Duisburg-Essen (UDE) is looking for
within the Starting Grant “Beyond Representative Volume Elements for Random Heterogeneous Materials” (BeyondRVE) funded by the European Research Council (ERC).
Commencing date: 01.04.2024 (or as soon as possible) Duration of contract: until end of project (30.06.2027) Working hours: 100 percent of a full-time position (part-time employment is possible) Application period: 21.03.2024
The ERC StG BeyondRVE focuses on novel simulation technology for computing the material behavior of materials with a random microstructure. The goal is to build up a groundbreaking multiscale methodology, taking into account the latest neural-network technology and screening the spurious boundary layers which arise for digital volume images of microstructures. Upon completion of the project, a significant boost for the nonlinear mechanics of heterogeneous materials and lightweight design is expected, providing multiscale methods with more expressive results in shorter time for larger classes of materials with higher complexity.
For non-periodic microstructures or when working with non-periodic boundary conditions for the displacement, boundary-layer effects pollute the computed effective properties of random heterogeneous materials. Only low accuracy can be reached, unless gigantic cells are considered.
The aim of the first Post-Doc project is to establish a novel computation methodology to mitigate these problems by screening boundary-layer effects appropriately.
Usually, only the expected mechanical response of a random material is computed in multi-scale methods of mechanics. Within the BeyondRVE projects, higher-order statistical quantities will be computed as part of the computational strategy and made available on a macroscopic scale.
The aim of the second Post-Doc project is to establish a novel technology to quantify the microstructure-induced uncertainty using the framework of Deep Material Networks or an extension thereof.
Job description:
cutting-edge research in computational micromechanics, in particular solution methods based on the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), or multi-scale modeling of engineering materials like fiber composites, foams, poly-crystalline materials
extend Deep Material Networks to uncertainty quantification
simulation studies for a variety of random materials, including fiber structures, foams and poly-crystalline materials
analysis, interpretation and assessment of simulation results
discussion of results within an international research team
writing and submitting of scientific publications in quality peer-reviewed journals
presentation of research results at national and international conferences
We expect:
PhD in engineering or natural sciences, applied mathematics or related fields.
strong background in continuum mechanics, material modeling or numerical methods.
excellent coding skills in Python and C/C++.
an aptitude for theoretical and computationally oriented research.
good team-working and communication skills.
excellent English skills, both written and spoken.
We offer:
a varied, multifaceted area of responsibility in a lively research-intensive environment.
further training opportunities and career support within the framework of the university.
a non-discriminatory working environment with respectful, appreciative cooperation.
a pleasant working atmosphere in a dynamic team.
family-friendliness through care for your children and advice on your care tasks.
a wide range of further education and training opportunities, individual induction.
a very good public transport connection and free parking.
attractive sports and health offers (university sports).
flexible working hours and the option of working from home.
