The University of Warwick is offering a PhD studentship on NSF Swarf: A Novel Forging Process for Closed-Loop Recycling of Metallic Swarf . This project sits within the Advanced Steel Research Team and explores how machining waste can be transformed back into valuable material through a patented near-solidus forging approach. Machining can remove 60–90% of a component’s material, creating large amounts of swarf that are often discarded and mixed with lower-grade waste. The Warwick process propos...

[Funding information states £21,805.] University of Warwick is offering a PhD studentship on NSF Swarf: A novel forging process for closed-loop recycling of metallic swarf . The project addresses a major challenge in manufacturing: machining can remove 60–90% of a component’s material, creating large quantities of swarf that are often discarded and mixed with other grades. This studentship explores a patented near-solidus forging approach in which pre-compacted swarf is heated to just below the ...

About this position

Professor Sheng Guo at Chalmers University of Technology is advertising two immediate research openings in materials science.

One position is a PhD project on high-entropy ceramics. The other is a postdoc position on bcc-structured refractory alloys. These topics sit at the intersection of advanced structural materials, ceramics, alloy design, and high-temperature materials performance.

The post is aimed at candidates with a strong interest and background in the relevant research areas. While the announcement does not list detailed eligibility criteria, it clearly indicates that applicants should be qualified for the specific PhD or postdoctoral project. The professor also notes that applications must be submitted only through the official application channels, not by email or by commenting on the post.

Application links are provided separately for the PhD and postdoc vacancies. No deadline, stipend amount, or funding package is stated in the post text provided. Interested applicants should review the official vacancy pages for full requirements and submission instructions.

Research areas: high-entropy ceramics, refractory alloys, bcc structures, advanced materials, metallurgy.

Funding details

Two research positions are advertised: one PhD position and one postdoctoral position. The post does not specify stipend, salary, tuition, or other funding details, but these are job-like openings at Chalmers University of Technology.

What's required

Applicants should be qualified for an immediate PhD opening in high-entropy ceramics or a postdoc opening in bcc-structured refractory alloys. The post does not list detailed eligibility criteria, but it implies candidates should be interested and qualified for the specific materials science topic and must apply through the official channels rather than by email or comment.
