The Department of Materials Science and Engineering in the Faculty of Mechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineering at Delft University of Technology is seeking to appoint one high-calibre Early Stage Researcher (ESR) to join the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network - European Industrial Doctorate ‘LIGHTEN - Ultralight membrane structures towards a sustainable environment’.
About LIGHTEN: Building construction industry is the largest anthropogenic source of pollution with massive energy consumption and vast CO2 emission. Novel fully recyclable and low-carbon structural membranes offer a green alternative to glass and other transparent cladding materials used in lightweight buildings, resulting in significant weight savings in the structures and drastically reducing the environmental impact. The remarkably incomplete scientific and technological understanding of the thermomechanical behaviour of such innovative structural skins requires the development of engineering models capable of predicting their performances and allowing their rational use in ultralightweight buildings with enhanced energy efficiency and resilience. The EU-funded LIGHTEN project aims to educate and train a new generation of highly qualified scientists and engineers to become experts in advanced design methods for sustainable construction. Experimental characterisation, modeling, computer simulation and structural design will constitute the education of the researchers within an integrated doctoral program supervised by industrial and academic partners.
The Role: ESR5 will be enrolled on the PhD programme in Materials Science and Engineering at Delft University of Technology (TUD) and employed on a fixed-term contract at Delft University of Technology. The ESR will perform research on the “Data-driven design and optimisation of building skins and lightweight structures”, supervised by Assistant Professor Miguel A. Bessa at TUD and by Dr Massimo Penasa at CAEmate Srl.
