Enschede, Overijssel, Nederland University of Twente Voltijd

As part of the Dutch National research program Aviation in Transition, the Production Technology group at the University of Twente is seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to strengthen our team.

The successful candidate will be responsible for developing a simulation model for the T-joint welding process. This involves characterizing the thermo-rheological properties of the composite and filler material, evaluating the process and boundary conditions, and implementing a thermo-mechanical finite element model with the required constitutive relations.

We are looking for an individual with a Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or equivalent, who has experimental and theoretical skills in polymers and fiber-reinforced composites, experience with the finite element method, and proficiency in programming languages like Python or Matlab.

Our offer includes a full-time 4-year PhD position with a qualifier in the first year, excellent mentorship in a stimulating research environment, a personal development program, and a gross monthly salary of €2,770 increasing up to €3,539 in the fourth year. Additional benefits include a holiday allowance, end-of-year bonus, solid pension scheme, vacation days, laboratory and support facilities, access to sports facilities, and parental leave.

Join our interdisciplinary team of researchers and contribute to the advancement of thermoplastic composite materials for next-generation aircraft.
