Postdoc in microstructural and micromechanical modelling of concrete for high-temperature thermal energy storage Politecnico di Milano in Italy

Politecnico di Milano is advertising a 2-year postdoctoral position in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, in collaboration with Liberato Ferrara, Alessandra Bonfanti, and Giovanni Di Luzio.

The research topic is microstructural and micromechanical modelling and simulation of concrete for high-temperature thermal energy storage. This is a strong fit for candidates with backgrounds in civil engineering, materials science, mechanical engineering, and related computational or experimental work on cementitious materials, concrete mechanics, and energy-storage applications.

The post is announced by Enrico Masoero, Associate Professor at Politecnico di Milano. The official call is published by the university under the research contract procedure for the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering.

Deadline: 27 July 2026 at 12:00 Italian time. Interviews are expected toward the end of September, and the starting date is as soon as possible after the interview, certainly before the end of the year.

How to apply: Use the official Politecnico di Milano call page and follow the administrative instructions in the linked notice. The LinkedIn short link in the post points to the application details and the university page contains the formal call.
