Delft, Nederland TU Delft Voltijd

PhD position: Big Data Analytics and AI in Port Performance Optimization - Infrastructure Use-
Job description

**Research context**

Ports are vital nodes in the global logistics network, facilitating international trade and commerce. They connect nations and ensure the smooth flow of imports and exports, boosting economic development. Efficient operations lower transportation costs and enhance supply chain reliability, promoting economic growth. Port infrastructure—such as breakwaters, access channels, terminals, and environmental factors like water levels and currents—greatly impacts their functionality. Understanding the relationship between infrastructure, environment, and efficiency is essential for optimizing port performance.

In pursuit of advancing the efficiency of port operations, a strategic collaboration has been established through a Data-sharing and support agreement between the Port of Rotterdam and the group “Ports and Waterways” at TU Delft. This partnership aims to leverage the wealth of data available, encompassing geospatial information, vessel traffic data, and environmental data, together with satellite imagery and various other open sources of information. Under this collaborative agreement, the Port and Waterways AI research program has been initiated. Financed by the Port of Rotterdam, the primary goal is to unlock the full potential of available data sources and advances in Artificial Intelligence techniques to enhance port performance, with a key focus on sea-side operational efficiency.

Within the Port and Waterways AI research program, four distinct positions have been established, with three already filled. This PhD position will focus on infrastructure use and operational dynamics. The other positions in the program cover areas such as strategic evaluation of port infrastructure and sediment dynamics related to navigable depth, as well as a postdoctoral role aimed at creating a new working environment and developing testing beds for innovative models and methods

**Requirements**:

- An MSc degree in Civil Engineering, Maritime Engineering, Transport and Infrastructure, or any other related field;
- Advanced skills in scripting with Python;
- Ability to work in a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment both with scientific partners and stakeholders from industry;
- Additional experience with agent-based (and/or) discrete-event simulation and AIS data is a plus.

Conditions of employment

The TU Delft offers a customisable compensation package, discounts on health insurance, and a monthly work costs contribution. Flexible work schedules can be arranged.

For international applicants, TU Delft has the Coming to Delft Service. This service provides information for new international employees to help you prepare the relocation and to settle in the Netherlands. The Coming to Delft Service offers a Dual Career Programme for partners and they organise events to expand your (social) network.
