Ph.D. position in Computational Mechanics in
- Luxembourg
- The computational mechanics group of Prof. Stéphane Bordas and Dr. Lars Beex- searching for a Ph.D. student to work on the following project. The project focuses on phase-field
- damage modelling, rubbery polymers, and experimental validation. All work is carried out in close- **Project**
The project aims to analyse the formation and growth of micro-cracks in rubber due to fatigue
- loading. Recently published articles on fatigue failure of rubber show that micro-cracks nucleate at
- initially present natural flaws. The initial distribution of flaws and the micro-crack growth is
- investigated with CT-scans and interrupted fatigue tests. These results are used to refine a fatigue
- phase-field damage model for this scale. Key points are:
- Measure the initial flaw size with CT-scans for various process parameter and compounds
- Interrupted fatigue tests with CT-scans to study the micro-crack growth
- Fatigue tests with samples with artificially introduced flaws
- Refine a fatigue phase-field damage model for micro-scale simulations
- Implementation of a fatigue phase-field fatigue model
- Parameter calibration and validation of the numerical model with experimental data

**Offer**
Three to four years of funding for the Ph.D. student is provided with a competitive salary. Funds to
attend conferences and summer schools are available. Each student will be employed by the
university, but she/he will also spend a significant amount of time in the company.

Aspiring researchers interested in a Ph.D. topic with strong industrial relevance are encouraged to
apply. Only those who hold an MSc degree or will hold one in the near future will be considered. We
are specifically looking for those who hold an MSc degree in Engineering. A background in and
affinity with some of the following fields is required:

- Material/constitutive modelling and structural mechanics,
- Finite element analysis
- Experimental work
- Scientific computing (numerical integration, optimization, etc.)
- Some form of programming (MATLAB, Python, C++, FORTRAN, etc.),
