Phd studentship in the department of Sciences UHASSELT

In the context of the ‘Associatie Universiteit-Hogescholen Limburg’ of Hasselt University, the following position (m/f) is available:

Phd – studentship in the department of Sciences (2x2 years)

(mandate AUHL/2009/002)

Job description
This project is a collaboration between the Construction engineering department of the XIOS Hogeschool Limburg and the department of architecture of the Provinciale Hogeschool Limburg.
The objective of this research project is to develop a three dimensional model for masonry. This model must be capable of predicting the behaviour of masonry subjected to new loading conditions, both mechanical as well as thermal. The model is time dependent in order to take the changing of strength and stiffness as a function of time into account. Consequently, the current state of the material parameters can be introduced (e.g. degradation of strength and stiffness due to environmental reasons). Damage accumulation is also taken into account. This enables the possibility to introduce initial damage. Apart from mechanical loading, also thermal effects are taken into account. The objective is to model the additional loading due to changing thermal parameters.

Diploma
Applicants should have or expect to obtain a Licentiate/Master’s degree in a relevant discipline such as the above, or they are expected to have a degree equivalent to Lic./Masters. Research experience would be advantageous (e.g. by M.Sc. dissertation). Applicants should have sufficient knowledge of Dutch and/or English.
