Remuneration EGR. 13 TV-L
Start of employment 16.12.2024
Application deadline 16.10.2024
Scope full time and for a maximum of twelve months
Position is opened in the Collaborative Research Center (SFB) "SMART Reactors for Future Process Engineering".
A major key to success in facing climate change and creating more resilient supply chains is the transformation of feedstocks from fossil resources to renewable raw materials. Led by the Hamburg University of Technology, the CRC 1615 is developing processes and reactors that respond flexibly to the fluctuating properties of renewable raw materials, thus enabling self-adapting, more resilient process engineering Project:
Materials for SMART reactors: Thermodynamic and kinetic modelling of responsive materials.
The project focuses on the development of molecular thermodynamic and kinetic models describing the behaviour of stimuli-responsive materials. The ultimate goals are to provide comprehensive insights and to set the groundwork for establishing a digital twin simulator for other projects in the CRC. To achieve the goals a screening will be performed to understand the range of the stimuli-responsive behaviour. Extension of the existing models for multi-component systems will also be performed. Modelling of swelling dynamics will then be addressed with chemical potential gradient based model, semi-empirical and lattice models.
YOUR TASKS
- Scientific work within SFB 1615 (Project B01) and networking with neighbor projects of the cluster
