  • Experimental and theoretical skills in polymers and fiber-reinforced composites.
  • Experience with the finite element method and programming experience in scripting languages like Python or Matlab.
  • Proficiency in English, both spoken and written.

We Offer:

  • 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 within the Twente Graduate School.
  • Gross monthly salary of € 2,770 in the first year, increasing each year up to € 3,539 in the fourth year.

About the Position:

This PhD position is part of the National research program Aviation in Transition, focusing on the development of novel constitutive models for molten unidirectionally reinforced thermoplastic composites. The successful applicant will work on the development and implementation of these models in finite element software, aiming to improve the accuracy of process simulation tools for press forming.

What We Are Looking For:

  • A highly motivated researcher with a strong background in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, or a related field.
