PhD in Marine Technology for Sustainable Ship Design, Cavitation and Underwater Radiated Noise Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden

PhD opportunity at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Chalmers University of Technology, in the area of marine technology and sustainable ship design.

The project is linked to the Kongsberg UTC and focuses on developing computational tools for future marine propulsion systems. The research topic is centered on methods to assess cavitation inception, vibrations, and underwater radiated noise during the design phase of ships and propulsion systems.

This is a complex multiphysics problem that combines strong physical understanding with high-fidelity CFD and may also involve machine learning. The post indicates supervision by Professor Rickard Bensow in the division of Marine Technology.

This is an academic doctoral opening rather than a scholarship announcement. No deadline, stipend amount, or application portal is provided in the post.

Relevant study areas include mechanical engineering, physics, computer science, and computational marine hydrodynamics.
