1 PhD and 1 Postdoc position in computational and data-driven multiscale material modelling
Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Hochschule Karlsruhe Job description: Microstructural properties are the core of e.g. strength, corrosion resistance and lifetime. These properties can be permanently changed by manufacturing, load... ing and forming processes. A fundamental understanding of the physical mechanisms that characterize and determine the microstructure properties therefore enable the development of special-tailored materials that can exploit their full potential and can be precisely adapted to the process chain associated with an application. In this project, a digital material twin for metallic microstructures shall be created based on the evaluation of microstructures on different length scales. The goal is to further develop physically based material models, which preserve important physical phenomena and yield a continuum representation of microscale mechanisms based on statistical physics. With the incorporation of a meaningful homogenization of defect structures coupled with data-driven approaches, an advanced numerical formulation shall be established which bridge the modelling of plastic material behavior from the micro to the macro scale.
Qualification: Candidates should hold an MSc degree (or equivalent) in material science, numerical mathematics, mechanical engineering, or physics with a solid theoretical background and interest in materials simulation. Additional knowledge of materials mechanics, finite elements, C/C++, modern data analysis/machine learning, or experience with other simulation methods is an asset.
Salary: The remuneration occurs on the basis of the wage agreement of the civil service in Germany in TV-L, E13.
Institute: University of Applied Sciences Karlsruhe in cooperation with the Institute for Applied Materials – Reliability and Microstructure (IAM-ZM), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany.

Exceptional candidates will be considered at the level of associate or full professor.
Strong preference will be given to candidates who demonstrate expertise within these (or related) areas. Specifically, candidates who develop new computational mechanics algorithms will be prioritized over those who rely solely on existing numerical tools, such as commercial software or conventional machine learning methods for surrogate modeling.
The University of Utah campus is situated in Salt Lake City (SLC), a growing, increasingly diverse, metropolitan city with a population of 1M nestled against the backdrop of the beautiful Wasatch Mountains. The greater SLC valley is an important economic hub of the Mountain West and is home to many large technology and Fortune 500 companies. SLC residents enjoy a highly accessible and walkable downtown with vibrant restaurants, sports, nightlife, and cultural events. SLC residents enjoy easy access to national parks (8 within a few hours’ drive), world-class skiing/snowboarding (7 resorts within 1 hour), hiking, fishing, biking, and rafting/kayaking. In addition, faculty members enjoy free access to public transportation and the convenience of an international airport located only 15 minutes from campus.
