Gothenburg, Västra Götaland, Sweden Chalmers tekniska högskola Full time
Job Description

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join our research group at Chalmers tekniska högskola. The successful candidate will work on a PhD project focused on modelling and simulation of a novel low-energy crushing and milling technology for mining and mineral processing.

Project Overview

The PhD research position is part of the Vinnova-Embrapii project, which aims to develop a new energy-efficient and sustainable comminution technology. The project involves detailed understanding and accurate modelling of the single particle fracture mechanism of the low-energy milling machine, enabling it to be simulated and designed at the production scale.

Responsibilities
  • Conduct research on modelling and simulation of the low-energy crushing and milling technology
  • Work closely with other PhD students and senior scientists within the Chalmers Rock Processing Systems group
  • Collaborate with other researchers within the Vinnova-Embrapii project and international collaborations
  • Teach at Chalmers' undergraduate level corresponding to 20% of working hours
Requirements

The successful candidate should have a strong background in mechanical engineering, materials science, or a related field. Excellent communication and collaboration skills are essential for this role.

What We Offer

As a PhD student at Chalmers tekniska högskola, you will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and international research environment. You will be part of a research group with a strong focus on sustainable and energy-efficient technologies.
