This one-year postdoctoral position is part of the European Research Council SYNERGY project ROTTnROCK , which investigates how hydrothermal alteration shapes volcano morphology, instability, and unpredictable volcanic hazards. The project addresses the hidden weakening of volcanic edifices through alteration processes that change the chemical and physical state of rocks inside a volcano, helping explain why some volcanoes fail suddenly through explosive eruptions or flank collapse. The postdoc ...

GATOR is a postdoctoral project hosted by the SIAME Laboratory at the University of Pau and Pays de l'Adour, in collaboration with CEA Gramat. The work focuses on the development of a generator based on nonlinear transmission lines (NLTLs) for the emission of high-power microwaves and intense electromagnetic fields. The successful postdoctoral researcher will contribute to both the theoretical and experimental development of the prototype. On the theory side, the project involves studying how NL...

At the GeM laboratory at Ecole Centrale de Nantes , this postdoctoral position explores the experimental analysis of hydro-chemo-mechanical phenomena geological CO₂ storage . The project is centered on understanding how acidified CO₂-brine solutions interact with the caprock of storage sites and how these reactions may modify rock properties and long-term sealing capacity. The postdoctoral researcher will work on the experimental reproduction of CO₂ migration scenarios through rock, including si...

About this position

This postdoctoral project is hosted by ISTerre and carried out within the ERC Advanced Grant project Crack the Rock. The work focuses on understanding how environmental forcing affects the cracking and damage evolution of rocks, combining observations from natural rocky outcrops and controlled experimental analysis.

The successful researcher will develop acoustic experiments in the field to study how environmental solicitations influence rocks and contribute to subcritical cracking under cyclic mechanical loading. The project also includes the processing and interpretation of data in relation to fracturing models, together with the design of laboratory tests using ultrasonic sensors to characterize the mechanical properties of rock samples collected from the same field sites.

A further part of the work is the use of existing datasets to identify how moisture and freeze-thaw cycles affect rock damage evolution. The overall aim is to build a predictive model for the evolution of rock fissuring under environmental loading.

The position is embedded in the Mécanique des failles team and in a broader research environment at ISTerre, a mixed research unit with around 310 staff and part of the Observatoire des Sciences de l’Univers of Université Grenoble Alpes. The project team includes a principal investigator, several researchers, PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, engineers, and interns, offering a collaborative setting for field, laboratory, and modelling work.

The postdoctoral researcher will also supervise or co-supervise one or more master’s students, publish scientific papers, and present results at international scientific meetings.
