JOB DESCRIPTION
We are seeking a full time PhD candidate with research interests in granular physics, continuum mechanics, computer modelling and the discrete element methods (DEM) to join University of Twente (Netherlands) and DCS Computing (Austria), where you will work on multiscale modelling of mixing and segregation.
This project is part of the EU funded Marie Curie Initial Training Network TUSAIL– Training in Upscaling particle Systems: Advancing Industry across Length-scales (www.tusail.eu). The overarching objective of TUSAIL is to develop, apply and validate three novel modelling methodologies in the upscaling of industrial particulate processes. TUSAIL will train 15 researchers within a collaborative multidisciplinary and inter-sectorial network involving 6 university partners and 5 major industries across Europe.
Project details:
Goal of the project is to develop a meso-particle model to predict segregation and mixing behaviour of large industrial mixing systems.
If you have a query about this specific ESR project, please contact the project supervisor (listed above). If your query relates to eligibility requirements or TUSAIL as a whole, please contact info@tusail.eu.
We welcome your application to this project. Before applying, please ensure you meet the eligibility requirements common to all TUSAIL projects.
