Postdoctoral Researcher: Grease Life Model Development for Rolling Bearings

4 weken geleden


Enschede, Overijssel, Nederland University of Twente Voltijd

The University of Twente is seeking a highly skilled Postdoctoral Researcher to join our team in the development of a remaining grease life model for rolling bearings. The successful candidate will have a strong background in mechanical engineering or physics, with expertise in lubrication and tribology.

The goal of this 2-year project is to create a model that predicts the remaining grease life based on oil content, bleed properties, oxidation, and rheology of grease samples. This requires a thorough understanding of Elasto-Hydrodynamic Lubrication (EHL), thin film lubrication properties of oils, and grease lubrication mechanisms.

The ideal candidate will have a strong analytical mind, excellent written and verbal communication skills, and proficiency in Python and/or MATLAB. They will also have a good understanding of contact mechanics, physics of complex fluids, and degradation.

The project is connected to several other running PhD projects, and the successful candidate will have the opportunity to work with a team of experts in the field. The position is located at the University of Twente, but part of the work can be performed at SKF Research and Technology Development in Houten, The Netherlands.

We offer a 2-year postdoctoral position, excellent mentorship, and a stimulating research environment with excellent facilities. The gross salary will be between € 3,877 and € 5,090 per month, depending on experience.

We are looking for a highly motivated and skilled individual who is passionate about lubrication and tribology. If you are interested in this exciting opportunity, please submit your application.
