PhD Position in Theoretical Chemistry, Condensed Matter Physics, and Computational Materials Science at the University of Cambridge University of Cambridge in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the University of Leicester in the Alloy Design & Phase Transformations Research Group with Dr Gebril El-Fallah . This project focuses on austenitic steels , thermal expansion , high-temperature strength , metallurgy , solid state physics , and machine learning . The research asks whether magnetic behaviour can be engineered to reduce thermal expansion in steels while preserving strength and stability for structural service in advanced energy systems. You will study how alloy ...
