KTH Royal Institute of Technology is recruiting a doctoral student for research on the structural rehabilitation of concrete hydro dams within the Division for Concrete Structures at the Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering. The project focuses on reinforced concrete structures used in hydropower, especially spillways and related concrete elements that have been exposed to decades of varying water flows and, in some cases, extreme high-flow events. The research aims to improve under...

Doctoral research in structural dynamics and hybrid construction This doctoral project at the ZHAW Institute of Building Technology and Process investigates structural dynamics and vibration mitigation in hybrid steel–timber buildings. The research addresses how building components and connections behave under dynamic loads, with the goal of supporting safer, more comfortable and resource-efficient construction. The doctoral student will review research on vibrations in hybrid steel–timber struc...
