PhD in Multi-scale Modelling and Experimental Assessment of Volumetrically Prestressed Concrete ETH Zürich in Switzerland

Empa in Switzerland is advertising a fully funded PhD position in multi-scale modelling and experimental assessment of volumetrically prestressed concrete . The project is part of the EU Horizon research and innovation initiative SURPASS (Smart and Sustainable Resilient Performance-based Cementitious Composites for Adaptive Strengthening and Repair System), which focuses on adaptive strengthening and repair strategies for ageing infrastructure in aggressive environments. The PhD will work on str...

ZHAW Zurich University of Applied Sciences is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to advance sustainable structural systems for hybrid steel–timber buildings. The project combines structural dynamics, mechanical metamaterials, numerical simulation and experimental testing to improve vibration performance, occupant comfort and resource-efficient construction. The researcher will lead the design and optimisation of metamaterial resonators targeting frequencies from 1–20 Hz for human-induced vibratio...

ETH Zurich is offering two paid, full-time doctoral fellowships in Architecture and Technology through the A&T Doctoral Programme . The programme is interdisciplinary and sits within the Institute of Technology in Architecture (ITA), bringing together architecture, engineering, computation, digital fabrication, robotic construction, building systems, structural design, and related research areas. Successful applicants will join one of the participating professorships, such as Architecture and Di...
