About the Position

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled PhD researcher to join our team at the University of Twente. The successful candidate will be part of a multidisciplinary research project focused on understanding the influence of grain morphology and mesostructure on the initiation and runout of submarine landslides.

Background and Objectives

The project aims to develop a hydro-micromechanical model of realistic granular soils using fully-resolved direct numerical simulation techniques. The goal is to understand the role of grain morphology and mesostructure in the avalanching and resting processes during submarine landslides, at various overpressure conditions.

Key Responsibilities
  • Apply an existing LBM-DEM numerical model to simulate the collapse of dense/loose granular masses over an inclined plane subjected to sudden increase of pore pressure;
  • Incorporate realistic particle shapes in the LBM-DEM model and study the effect of grain morphology on hydromechanical behaviour;
  • Compare and validate the simulations with pilot-scale laboratory experiments on granular–liquid mixtures;
  • Coarse grain particle scale information into continuum fields and understand the mass/momentum transfer and energy dissipation mechanisms that contribute to the triggering and runout of saturated granular flows.
Requirements
  • Obtained a MSc degree in a relevant field such as civil engineering, mechanical engineering, computational physics, applied mathematics, materials science, or related areas;
  • Good knowledge of fluid-coupled particulate systems in slow and/or fast motion;
  • Sound programming skills in C/C++, Fortran, Python or equivalent;
  • Experience with the discrete element method or other particle-based numerical methods would be advantageous;
  • Excellent teamwork and communication skills;
  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple tasks;
  • Fluency in English language.
What We Offer
  • A full-time 4-year PhD-position with excellent mentorship and a stimulating research environment;
  • Collaborations with a dedicated, dynamic research team and external parties from several European countries involved in the POSEIDON project;
  • A gross monthly salary ranging from € 2.770,00 (first year), increasing each year up to € 3.539,00 in the fourth year;
  • Excellent fringe benefits including a holiday allowance of 8% of the gross annual salary, an end-of-year bonus of 8.3%, a solid pension scheme, free access to sports facilities and a family-friendly institution that offers parental leave.
