Marie Curie Post-Doc position in Computational Thermomechanics at VESUVIUS (Belgium): deadline May 30, 2015

You will be hired for a 24 months assignment starting as soon as possible by

Vesuvius Company (Belgium) on a FP7 Marie Curie-IAPP project, in cooperation with

a very active group in Solid Mechanics at University of Trento.

The candidate will implement the constitutive models developed for high- temperature behaviour

of materials in external routines for finite elements computations and tested to judge the

numerical stability and accuracy. The software will be subsequently employed in the design

of innovative systems for foundry industry applications through optimization procedures.

These systems will be tested to verify the optimality of the design and to judge the reliability

and safety factors of the elements.

Due to Trans-national mobility requirements the experienced researcher must not have resided

or carried out his/her main activity (work, studies, etc.) in Belgium for more than 12 months

in the 3 years immediately prior to the reference date. Short stays such as holidays

and/or compulsory national service are not taken into account.
