Job Description

Project Overview

The Eindhoven University of Technology is seeking a talented PhD researcher to work on a project focused on liquid metal heat shielding concepts. The project aims to develop a new laboratory for developing liquid metal shields for fusion (LiMeS-lab) and includes a laser additive manufacturing facility specifically tailored for refractory metals.

Research Objectives

  • Optimize the laser powder bed fusion process for high accuracy manufacturing of crack-free tungsten components and surface textures.
  • Design and manufacture the heat shielding components and its capillary substructure.
  • Experimentally test their functional performance under realistic loading conditions using the LiMeS infrastructure.

Requirements

  • A talented, motivated, and enthusiastic candidate with strong analytical skills, initiative, creativity, and flexibility.
  • An MSc-degree (with high grades) in Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or Materials Science.
  • A background and strong interest in mechanics of materials.
  • Experience in experimental (micro-)mechanics and additive manufacturing is of benefit.
  • Excellent oral communication and writing skills in English.

What We Offer

  • A challenging job in a dynamic and ambitious university in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network.
  • A full-time employment for four years, with an intermediate (go/no-go) evaluation after 9 months.
  • You will spend 10% of your employment on teaching tasks.
  • You're offered an advanced PhD-level training program in the field of Engineering Mechanics.
  • To support you during your PhD and to prepare you for the rest of your career, you will have free access to a personal development program for PhD students.
  • Salary and benefits in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities.

About the Department

The research activities of the Mechanics of Materials section concentrate on the fundamental understanding of various macroscopic problems in materials processing, forming and application, which emerge from the physics and the mechanics of the underlying material microstructure.
