This postdoctoral position at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm focuses on microstructure-informed modelling of fracture mechanics , combining experimental and computational research to better understand material failure. The work centers on developing new test geometries for studying void nucleation across a broad range of stress states, using mechanical testing together with advanced X-ray computed tomography (CT) in both interrupted and in situ test setups. Initial experiments wi...

The KTH Royal Institute of Technology is offering a postdoctoral position in experimental and computational fracture mechanics in Stockholm, Sweden. The project combines experimental testing of mini-CT specimens with numerical modeling to improve methods for characterizing crack growth resistance in ductile materials. A key scientific theme is the use of sub-sized specimens in structural integrity assessment, including geometry effects and the transferability of laboratory results to real compon...
