About this position
Postdoctoral project at CNRS / Laboratoire Navier focused on the study of thermo-hydric transfers in natural porous materials using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI/IRM).
The successful candidate will investigate how water and temperature interact in bio-sourced and geo-sourced porous materials at the macroscopic scale. The project combines non-destructive MRI observations with smaller-scale NMR relaxometry to follow the spatial and temporal evolution of moisture profiles, identify redistribution mechanisms, and understand the formation of heterogeneities and transfer fronts under varying thermal conditions.
The work is hosted in the Laboratoire Navier, a joint research unit involving the École des Ponts ParisTech, Université Gustave Eiffel, and CNRS. Within the lab, the Rhéophysique et Milieux Poreux team studies the physical properties of divided materials and porous media through experiments, theoretical modeling, and numerical simulations. The team’s approach emphasizes model materials and quantitative comparison between experiments and simulations, creating a strong environment for cross-scale analysis and interpretation.
The project is situated in the context of sustainable building materials, where biosourced and geosourced materials are increasingly important for hygrothermal regulation and low-carbon construction. The postdoc will contribute to experimental development, multimodal characterization, and scientific dissemination within an ANR-funded research project.
