Research Topic

Postdoc position on digital twins for machines and structures

Submitted by info@signatur.dk on

Are you interested in developing Digital Twin technology for machines and structures? Do you have experience with virtual/hybrid testing and/or structural health monitoring? Are you eager to bridge the gap between structural engineering and cyber-physical system engineering? Then the Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering invites you to apply for a 1.0-year Postdoc position funded by the IFD project “Cyber-physical systems for machines and structures – CP-SENS.”

Highlights

1. Well-posedness of a general nonlinear state based peridynamic models.

2. A priori numerical convergence rate for finite difference approximations of state based peridynamic models.

3. Numerical verification of convergence rate for samples with growing cracks.

Analysis of microstructural induced enhancement of electromechanical coupling in soft dielectrics

Submitted by Stephan Rudykh on

Electroactive soft elastomers require huge electric field for a meaningful actuation. We demonstrate, by means of numerical simulation, that this can be dramatically reduced and large deformations can be achieved with suitably designed heterogeneous actuators. The mechanism by which the enhancement is attained is illustrated with the aid of both idealized and periodic models.
