1. Postdoctoral Job

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Autonomous vehicles have been shown to underperform when deployed on conditions that differ substantially from the training conditions, so-called domain gaps. These domain gaps can include deployment in different regions, weather or using different sensors. Numerous domain adaptation methods have been proposed to bridge these domain gaps and let the model operate well on the target data.

3. Postdoctoral Job

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Autonomous vehicles have come a long way from initial public testing with safety drivers to fully driverless deployments in multiple cities across the world. However, to further improve these vehicles, they need to be trained from ever growing data sources collected by their fleets. Due to the vast cost of storing and processing this data, car manufacturers face the problem that they can only store a fraction of it (storing 1h of data costs about $5000 per year). Therefore new paradigms are needed to reduce the storage and processing cost.

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Hydrogen is expected to play a key role in reaching climate neutrality for hard-to-abate sectors. Today, producing hydrogen via water electrolysis is prohibitively expensive, due to high investment costs, low efficiencies and a high operational cost related to the electricity input. At the same time, the regulatory framework requires future electrolyzer projects to operate in tandem with nearby renewable electricity production, requiring dynamic operation of the electrolyzer plant.

6. Postdoctoral Job

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The Schultzberg lab addresses fundamental questions in neuroinflammation with the aim to find new treatment targets in Alzheimer’s disease. Our studies build upon in vivo and in vitro models as well as on analysis of human clinical samples, in order to elucidate the molecular and cellular mechanisms for resolving neuroinflammation and regaining homeostasis in the brain. Resolution of inflammation in the brain is a relatively new research field and our studies aim to provide knowledge on the signals for resolving inflammation in the brain and whether stimulation or modulation of these is beneficial for neuronal functioning and eventually as a potential target for the treatment of patients.

1. Fully Funded PhD Position in mechanics of lattice materials

Summary of PhD Program:

Lattice materials are interconnected arrays of struts, like honeycombs, and they possess remarkable properties: they are among the stiffest, strongest, and lightest materials available today. Lattices have a major advantage over conventional engineering materials: their topology can be designed to achieve new and unique combinations of mechanical properties. The objective of this project will be to tailor the architecture of lattices to increase their resistance to crack propagation. To achieve this, you will perform a wide range of finite element simulations and validate these predictions with mechanical tests on lattices produced by additive manufacturing.

8. Fully Funded PhD Position in Characterization, aging and modelling of polymeric fire-stop materials

Summary of PhD Program:

Fire-stops are used in many industrial and residential buildings to ensure fire compartmentation within fire-resistant walls and floors with cable or pipe penetrations. Fire-stop materials range from cementitious, cast-in-place materials to functional polymers and modular systems that react and deform when heated. In the context of nuclear power plant fire safety, the aging of fire-stop materials is a concern when the working life of the operating plants is extended with tens of years. Numerical modelling capabilities are needed, when assessing the performance of fire-stops in non-tested applications.

10. Fully Funded PhD Position in wave-ice interaction through laboratory experiments

Summary of PhD Program:

Marginal ice zone (MIZ) is the transition from ice-free ocean to the pack ice, characterized by ice-ocean dynamics and discrete ice floes. In MIZ, waves have an effect on sea ice and sea ice effects the waves. We can assume that with global warming the MIZs of the oceans will grow in size, because the thinner ice of the future will break more easily than the thicker ice of yesterday. If earlier either thick ice or high waves were challenging for ships and offshore windfarms, we now need to consider also the situation where ice and waves occur at the same time. The sea ice landscape has changed: What was marginal, is now important.
