Job Description

This project aims to model the corrosion induced damage process in reinforced concrete. A multi-physics model is envisioned, to capture the ingress of chloride ions, the stress loading on concrete material due to the formation of corrosion products, and the resultant damage in concrete. Meso scale modelling with matrix, ITZ and aggregates will be utilized to understand the interactions between underlying processes.

The candidate is expected to perform the following tasks:

• Develop and implement a multi-physics numerical model for concrete on the diffusion of chloride ions leading to the formation of corrosion products;
• Develop and implement a damage model for concrete to capture the development of cracks in reinforced concrete.

Job Requirements

• Possess a PhD degree in a relevant field.
• Has demonstrated experience in at least two of the following topics: Random field generation and modelling/Multi-physics model formulation and numerical implementation/Continuum modelling of corrosion process /Phase-field / nonlocal / gradient damage models.
• Strong communication skills; written and spoken.
• Open to fixed-term contract.
