PhD in Health Monitoring of Aircraft Structures and Systems

This PhD position at KU Leuven focuses on the health monitoring of aircraft structures and systems, aiming to develop advanced tools for robust monitoring and damage assessment in the aerospace sector. The project is a collaboration between the Departments of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at KU Leuven's Ghent Campus, ensuring comprehensive coverage of both materials and operational aspects. The successful candidate will join the 'Mecha(tro)nic System Dynamics' and 'Materials Performance and Nondestructive Testing' divisions, both recognized for their excellence in research and innovation. Structural failure in aircraft can have catastrophic consequences, making the integrity of these systems a top priority for safety and cost management. The project addresses the need for on-line, autonomous detection and characterization of failures, which can significantly reduce operational costs and enhance safety. The research is designed with industrial implementation in mind, supported by an advisory group that includes industry leaders such as Brussels Airlines, offering opportunities for real-world impact and potential future collaborations. The research will involve the development and application of state-of-the-art techniques such as digital image correlation, experimental and computational mechanics, ultrasound and vibration analysis, Bayesian statistics, and machine learning. The candidate will be expected to contribute to the creation of innovative monitoring and damage assessment tools for complex industrial structures, with a focus on aircraft. Applicants should have a strong background in natural or engineering sciences, with proven expertise in areas such as structural monitoring, engineering mechanics, numerical modelling, or data post-processing. The position is open to both EU and international candidates, reflecting KU Leuven's commitment to diversity and inclusion. The university provides a supportive and inclusive environment, welcoming applicants from all backgrounds. Funding is available for the successful candidate, though specific details regarding stipend and tuition are not provided in the announcement. The application deadline is March 31, 2026. Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Prof. Dimitrios Chronopoulos for informal enquiries and to submit their applications through the official KU Leuven job portal. For more information and to apply, visit the official application link provided. KU Leuven is dedicated to equal opportunity and encourages applications from all qualified individuals.
