PhD scholarship in AI-based Cementitious Materials Characterization – DTU Construct
Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark
Job Description
Are you passionate about incorporating AI in the characterisation of cementitious materials?
We are seeking someone like you! In the section on Digital Building Technology (DBT) at DTU, Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering, and in collaboration with the Department of Structural Engineering of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), you will break new ground for developing digital tools for characterizing micro and macro-level properties of cementitious materials and predicting their performance indices. The PhD candidate is expected to have an external stay of about one year at NTNU. The PhD research is a part of the DTU PhD alliance project “DiGiCEM” and the Villum Young Investigator project, ‘‘Alive Concrete’’.
Responsibilities and qualifications
