PhD or Postdoc position in Materials Mechanics/Numerics/Statistical Physics

katrin schulz's picture

Development of advanced materials for high-end applications is driven by the increasing understanding of the dynamics and properties of defect microstructures, leading to the ability to synthesize and control materials microstructures to meet specific application demands. Dislocation motion is the fundamental physical mechanism of the plastic deformation process in crystalline materials. Whereas macroscopic plasticity models introduce different simplifications and approximations, small scale simulation techniques incorporates the underlying physical effect but are restricted by their high numerical effort and computation time. The goal is to further develop a physically based continuum method, which preserves important physical phenomena and yields a continuum representation of dislocation motion based on statistical physics. With the incorporation of a meaningful homogenization of dislocation ensembles, an advanced numerical formulation shall be established which bridge the modelling of plastic material behavior from the micro to the macro scale.
