Project Overview
The goal of this project is to create a system capable of autonomously selecting in real time the optimal concrete composition and process parameters to produce the ideal concrete paste for specific applications, so as to reduce material wastage and improve the environmental performance of concrete as a building material.
This is a joint project between the University of Twente and the University of Applied Sciences Saxion, combining expertise from fundamental science, granular material modeling, software development, calibration, creative design, and concrete printing. You will work closely together with a Postdoc, who will be responsible for developing the digital twin environment, while you will focus on developing the physical twins of the mixing and printing processes. Together, you will work on creating a comprehensive virtual twin for these processes. Supporting this position is an academic team consisting of two PhD supervisors as well as additional academic staff members with expertise that covers modeling, programming and experimentation.
Please apply via the "apply now" button. The application deadline is October 31, 2024.
