The University | About us...
The
University of Luxembourg is an
international research university with a distinctly
multilingual and
interdisciplinary character.

The University was founded in 2003 and counts more than 6,700 students and more than 2,000 employees from around the world.

The University's faculties and interdisciplinary centres focus on research in the areas of Computer Science and ICT Security, Materials Science, European and International Law, Finance and Financial Innovation, Education, Contemporary and Digital History.

In addition, the University focuses on cross-disciplinary research in the areas of Data Modelling and Simulation as well as Health and System Biomedicine.

Times Higher Education ranks the University of Luxembourg #3 worldwide for its "international outlook," #20 in the Young University Ranking 2021 and among the top 250 universities worldwide.


The Faculty of Science, Technology and Medicine (FSTM) contributes multidisciplinary expertise in the fields of
Mathematics,
Physics,
Engineering,
Computer Science,
Life Sciences and
Medicine. Through its dual mission of teaching and research, the FSTM seeks to generate and disseminate knowledge and train new generations of responsible citizens, in order to better understand, explain and advance society and environment we live in.

Your Role...
The aim of this Ph.
D. project is to improve our understanding of structural behavior, degradation mechanisms, and numerical modeling of aging concrete structures.

The tasks comprise the development of algorithms for sensor-data interpretation, the design of finite-element models using both AI-based and physics-based approaches, and data-informed structural reliability analysis.

Multiple full-scale case studies of bridges in Europe (Switzerland, Luxembourg,) will be used to validate the developed solutions.


This groundbreaking research output will lead to the preservation of heritage structures, reduce the environmental impact of infrastructure management, and reduce maintenance costs.


Activities

  • Participate actively in the research project as described above
  • Write articles to be published in leading international scientific journals
  • Present your work at international conferences
  • Write a thesis in the domain of civil engineering, with strongly interdisciplinary components
  • Assisting in Bachelor/Master projects and courses

What we expect from you

Requirements for the post are:

  • Master's degree (or equivalent) in civil engineering (or related area)
  • Good understanding of the structural behavior and material properties of concrete structures and modelling of civil structures. Knowledge of data science (optimization, machine learning) and structural sensing technologies is a plus
  • Curiosity, a genuine passion for scientific research
  • Openness to interdisciplinary research and commitment to teamwork
  • Commitment and capacity to critical thinking and good research ethics
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English

In Short...

  • Contract Type: Contrat à durée déterminée 36 Mois (extendable up to 48 months if required)
  • Work Hours: Full Time 40.0 Heures par Semaine
