Phd On Integrating Resilience and Sustainability
1 maand geleden
**PhD on Integrating Resilience and Sustainability for Future-Proofing Urban Infrastructure Systems**:
**_Challenge: Achieving sustainable and resilient infrastructure._**
**_Change: Integrated infrastructure management to enable transitions._**
**_Impact: Improved understanding of infrastructure management tradeoffs._**
**Job description**:
The Department of Engineering Systems and Services at the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) is seeking a highly motivated and talented PhD student to join our research team.
The increased severity and frequency of extreme weather events have substantial impacts on the built environment and pose significant societal risks. In many cities, these risks are compounded by aging infrastructures (roads, water distribution systems, and energy grids among others), evolving (inter)dependencies, and growing demand from rapid urbanization. This is particularly true in cities of the Global South, where infrastructure development and management have historically been haphazard and uncoordinated, resulting in more pronounced impacts of climate extremes in recent years. Therefore, aligning infrastructure growth, replacement and management with the transition to sustainable and resilient cities becomes crucial, to enabling urban infrastructure systems to meet user expectations, emission targets and withstand unanticipated shocks.
However, research on sustainability and resilience within the context of infrastructure asset management remains fragmented. Infrastructure operators often prioritize short-term needs and lack clarity regarding system-level, long-term sustainability transitions. Additionally, there is ample empirical evidence for systemic risks that stem from cross-infrastructure dependencies. Understanding these cascading risks and integrating them into management approaches will be instrumental in making our infrastructure systems futureproof under resource constraints.
The aim of this position is to develop the theoretical and empirical foundations to address the emerging uncertainties to manage sustainable and resilient urban infrastructure systems, especially in cities that are infrastructure-deficient (e.g., in Global South) or have inadequate resources for systematic maintenance.
**Requirements**:
You have a master’s degree (or equivalent) in Civil Engineering, Operations Research, Transportation Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related field. (essential)
- You bring your strong background and expertise in civil infrastructure systems management and network optimization.
- You have excellent programming skills (e.g., Python or/and Java) and familiarity with network optimization algorithms.
- You have excellent working knowledge of geospatial tools, such as ArcGIS, QGIS, and geopandas or willingness to learn these packages.
- You are experienced in data collection, analysis (including statistical analysis), and visualization.
- You are an analytical and problem-solving thinker, with a keen interest in interdisciplinary research.
- You are an effective communicator and you have good technical writing skills in English, as proven by your publications or thesis.
- You enjoy both working independently and collaboratively within a team.
