Gothenburg, Västra Götaland, Sweden Chalmers tekniska högskola Full time

Join a World-Class Research Team

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join our research team at Chalmers tekniska högskola. The successful candidate will work on a project focused on the biaxial thermo-mechanical fatigue resistance of superalloys for use in aircraft engines.

Project Overview

The BIFROST project is a collaborative effort between Chalmers and GKN Aerospace Sweden AB, funded by Vinnova via the NFFP8 programme. The project aims to investigate the biaxial thermo-mechanical fatigue resistance of both forged and additively manufactured superalloys.

Responsibilities

As a PhD student, your main responsibility will be to carry out your own research, including reviewing current knowledge in the field, performing and analysing experiments, and developing scientific concepts. You will also attend advanced courses within the Graduate School of Materials Science and contribute to teaching and other duties for 10-20% of your working time.

Requirements

We are looking for a candidate with a strong background in materials science and a passion for research. You should have excellent communication skills and be able to work independently and collaboratively as part of a team.

What We Offer

As a PhD student at Chalmers, you will have access to state-of-the-art research facilities and a collaborative research environment. You will also have the opportunity to work with a diverse team of researchers and contribute to the development of new materials and technologies.
