Postdoc in Sustainable ZnAlMg-X Alloy Coatings for Green Steel Applications University of Groningen in Netherlands

University of Twente is advertising a PhD position in micro-abrasive resistant tire treads and tire wear , focused on understanding the mechanisms behind tire-road interaction and reducing rubber particle emissions. The project takes a novel tribological perspective on wear behavior and aims to support the development of better elastomer compounds with lower wear rates. The position is based in the Faculty of Engineering Technology (ET) at the University of Twente and is carried out in cooperati...

PhD position at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) , Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, on the effect of tramp elements in martensitic stainless steels . The project focuses on materials science , metallurgy , microstructure development , microstructural characterization , and the role of impurity elements in recycled steel loops. You will investigate which tramp elements are most critical for martensitic stainless steels, where they originate from, how they accumulate during recycling, a...

PhD opportunity at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in thermal runaway of batteries for naval vessels and maritime energy systems. The project is funded by the Dutch Ministry of Defense and focuses on how to design and use battery energy storage systems on board ships so that thermal runaway is avoided. The research asks how to build safer battery systems for naval vessels, how to model battery thermal behavior and runaway, how to reduce risk through battery chemistry, containment, and ...

TU Delft is advertising a Postdoc in Molecular Dynamics and Process Simulation of High-Temperature Thermal Storage Systems within the Heat Transformation Technology Section of the Process & Energy Department , Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. The project focuses on molten salts for high-temperature thermal energy storage and aims to support the electrification of industry and the sustainable production of carbon-based chemicals. The research combines molecular dynamics with process-scale simul...

University of Twente is offering a full-time PhD position on the development of micro-abrasive resistant tire treads, with a focus on understanding and reducing tire wear. The project addresses the environmental impact of tire-road interaction, where rubber particles are emitted into the environment and may pose pollution and health risks. The research aims to uncover the underlying mechanisms of tire wear from a tribological perspective and support the design of next-generation tire compounds w...
