Postdoc Opportunities in Structural Engineering in Luxembourg

The National University of Singapore’s Coastal Protection and Flood Resilience Institute Singapore is seeking a Research Fellow to work on scalable and sustainable coastal barriers. The research project, “Scalable and Sustainable Coastal Barriers for Wide and Deep Channels,” aims to develop an innovative deployable and modular coastal protection system for wide and deep waterways. The proposed design uses telescopic barrier units supported by a fleet of jack-up platforms, creating an adaptable s...

This postdoctoral project focuses on structural calculations for an industrial demonstrator made of injected SFRP composite material. The work combines finite element modelling of the demonstrator with multiscale material simulation strategies, using the MFront-Abaqus coupling to perform structural analyses at different levels of description. The research starts from a homogenised representation of the microstructure at the macroscopic scale, then progressively introduces more detailed effective...

The Micromechanical and Horological Design Laboratory (INSTANT-LAB) at EPFL is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to advance the design of flexure-based mechanisms. These compliant mechanisms rely on elastic deformation rather than conventional joints, enabling precise motion in demanding environments where frictionless operation, repeatability, reduced maintenance, and monolithic construction are especially valuable. The project focuses on developing a new design and modelling framework for f...

EPFL’s Micromechanical and Horological Design Laboratory (INSTANT-LAB) is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to advance the design and modelling of flexure-based mechanisms. These compliant mechanisms generate motion through the elastic deformation of slender structural elements instead of conventional sliding or rolling joints. The research addresses the performance trade-offs that limit high-performance flexure mechanisms, including motion range, load-carrying capability, stiffness and sensitiv...

This postdoctoral fellowship is hosted by ISAE-ENSMA within the ENDO team of the Pprime laboratory (UPR CNRS 3346) . It is part of the AnoHona PRC project, a wider collaborative effort involving French laboratories and the University of La Plata in Argentina. The project focuses on advanced nonlinear homogenization for structural analysis and aims to improve the way microstructural variability is represented in structural calculations. The position is centered on an SFRP injected industrial demo...

This postdoctoral position at Ghent University sits within the Mechanics of Materials and Structures department and is part of a broader research effort on composite hydrogen storage systems. The work centers on the numerical simulation, finite element modelling, and structural design of pressurized composite hydrogen tanks used both in vehicles and in refueling infrastructure. The project is embedded in Belgium’s active hydrogen technology ecosystem and is carried out in collaboration with indu...

Louisiana State University is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar to research the market potential and construction applications of solid carbon produced through turquoise hydrogen. The project will develop a material flow analysis framework for the use of solid carbon in U.S. asphalt and concrete markets. The researcher will investigate how incorporating solid carbon affects the mechanical, thermal, and durability performance of construction materials, and will map performance thresholds—including s...
