PhD scholarship in Statistical and AI-Driven Modelling for Microstructural Engineering of Additive Manufacturing - DTU Construct

Job description

If you want to pursue a research career at the intersection of additive manufacturing (AM), microstructural engineering and advanced statistical/machine-learning (ML) based modelling, then this PhD position is for you. DTU, Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering, the Section for Manufacturing Engineering invites applications for a PhD position (3 years) on the topic of statistical/AI-driven modelling for microstructural engineering of AM. The project is part of a Villum Investigator grant titled “Microstructural engineering of additive manufactured metals - MicroAM” funded by the VILLUM FONDEN. The overall aim of the project is to introduce microstructural engineering to the field of additive manufacturing (AM) of metals. This is to set the stage for optimizing metals microstructures in-situ during the AM process as well as ex-situ during post-AM treatments and enable predictions of the microstructural evolution, and thus changes in properties, while AM components are in use. Responsibilities and qualifications: The PhD position will look towards establishing correlations and causal pathways for microstructure evolution during AM (as well as post-AM treatments), based on a...
