Postdoc in Advanced Phase-Field Models for Corrosion Fatigue – DTU Construct
Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark
Job Description

The Materials Mechanics group within the Section of Solid Mechanics, DTU, Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering is hiring a highly qualified and ambitious Postdoc to work on phase-field modeling of corrosion fatigue. The project is sponsored by the Independent Research Fund Denmark through the project “Advanced Phase-Field Models for Corrosion Fatigue”, and it is headed by Professor Christian Niordson.
Responsibilities and qualifications
The Postdoc shall perform research within the development of a multi-physics modelling framework for fatigue damage in corrosive environments. The overarching aim of the project is to (1) couple phase field corrosion models with mechanics, (2) combine phase field fracture and corrosion formalisms, (3) incorporate the role of the material microstructure, (4) resolve the electro-chemo-mechanical nature of the problem, and (v) validate with experiments carried out by other project partners. The project is based on a close collaboration with other national and international academic partners as well as industrial partners, and it will be the responsibility of the postdoc to tie project activities together.
The preferred candidate shall have background / experience in the following areas:

• Solid Mechanics
• Fracture and Fatigue
• Phase field modelling
• Electro-chemistry
• Programming experience in languages such as Fortran and C++

As a formal qualification, you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent).
