PhD Position in Sustainable Milling Technology Modeling
3 weeks ago
The Chalmers tekniska högskola is seeking a PhD student to work on a research project focused on modeling and simulation of a novel low-energy crushing and milling technology for mining and mineral processing. The project aims to accelerate the adoption of this technology by accurately modeling the single particle fracture mechanism of the low-energy milling machine, enabling it to be simulated and designed at the production scale. The PhD student will work closely with other researchers within the Vinnova-Embrapii project and international collaborations to achieve this goal.
The research will involve laboratory experiments, data collection, and analysis of the mechanical interaction of the crushing/milling machine with the rock particles through modeling and simulation. The PhD student will also be responsible for writing a licentiate thesis within 2.5 years and defending their doctoral thesis within 5 years. The position includes teaching at Chalmers' undergraduate level corresponding to 20 percent of the working hours.
The project is part of the Vinnova-Embrapii project, which aims to develop a new energy-efficient and sustainable comminution technology. The PhD student will be part of a research group with a wide international collaboration in the field of aggregates production and minerals processing.
The main competencies at the department are found in the areas of Human-Technology Interaction, Form and Function, Modeling and Simulation, Product Development, Material, Production, and the interaction between these areas. The research develops the industrial process from need to finished product, creating added value by combining skills throughout the chain.
The Machine Element Group deals with the modeling and optimization of components, machines, and systems in industrial applications. Current research activities are centered around equipment and process modeling, optimization, and environmental impact assessments for aggregate production and minerals processing in mining for metal extraction.
As a PhD student, the main responsibility is to pursue their own doctoral studies, which includes work on the modeling of new technology for crushing/milling within the Vinnova-Embrapii project. The PhD student is expected to work independently, plan and organize their work, work in close collaboration with other group members and partners, and communicate scientific results both orally and in written form in English.
