PhD Position in Thermoplastic Composite T-Joint Welding Process Simulations
4 weken geleden
As part of the Dutch National research program Aviation in Transition, the Production Technology group at the University of Twente is seeking a PhD candidate to contribute to the simulation of a novel assembly technique for thermoplastic composites in a T-joint configuration.
Thermoplastic composite materials are considered a prime candidate for the next generation of commercial aircraft due to their improved toughness and recycling opportunities. The University of Twente and the ThermoPlastic composite Research Center have developed an alternative assembly technique that relies on the combination of the extrusion of a polymer into a filler shape connecting the locally heated laminate and stiffener.
The PhD candidate will focus on the development of a simulation model for the T-joint welding process, including the characterization of the thermo-rheological properties of the composite and filler material, a critical evaluation of the process and boundary conditions, and the implementation of a thermo-mechanical finite element model including the required constitutive relations.
The successful candidate will collaborate with other researchers and share their results with industrial partners. A Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or equivalent is required, as well as experimental and theoretical skills in polymers and fiber-reinforced composites, experience with the finite element method, and proficiency in English.
We offer a full-time 4-year PhD position with a qualifier in the first year, excellent mentorship in a stimulating research environment, and a personal development program within the Twente Graduate School. The position includes a gross monthly salary of € 2.770 in the first year, increasing each year up to € 3.539 in the fourth year, and excellent benefits including a holiday allowance of 8% of the gross annual salary and a solid pension scheme.
