Job description:

The Institute for Concrete Structures and Building Materials, Department of Building Materials and Concrete Construction, is headed by Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. Frank Dehn and is among the leading German institutions on material testing and research in the field of concrete constructions. You will be part of the research group Numerical modelling and Digitalization for Building Materials and Concrete Structures headed by Dr. Ravi Patel. This group engages in a wide range of topics, including nonlinear finite element modelling, multiphysics and multiscale modelling, thermodynamic modelling, reactive transport modelling, image-based modelling, and machine learning applications such as damage detection, data-driven mix design, and physics-informed machine learning. Topics also include the digitalization of laboratory data and data management. The working group collaborates closely with other research groups within the institute to conduct experiments needed to develop and validate the models. This collaboration provides a unique work environment that bridges fundamental theoretical modelling and experimental research.

Your main tasks will include supporting and developing research on machine learning applications in concrete technology, focusing on areas such as data-driven mix design, generative AI applications in concrete technology, and physics-informed machine learning to accelerate numerical simulations. You will work in close collaboration with colleagues who perform experiments and develop coupled thermo-hydro-chemo-mechanical models for concrete technology. You will have opportunities to further develop your skills in this field to achieve doctoral qualification. Additionally, you will have the chance to conduct experiments, participate in other research activities closely related to your topic, and assist in teaching and consulting duties.

This research center is part of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centers. With more than 42,000 employees and an annual budget of over € 5 billion, the Helmholtz Association is Germany's largest scientific organisation.
