DESCARTES PROGRAM

The DesCartes programme is developing a hybrid AI, combining Learning, Knowledge and Reasoning, which has good properties (need for less resources and data, security, robustness, fairness, respect for privacy, ethics), and demonstrated on industrial applications of the smart city (digital energy, monitoring of structures, air traffic control).

The program brings together 80 permanent researchers (half from France, half from Singapore), with the support of large industrial groups (Thales SG, EDF SG, ESI group, CETIM Matcor, Naval Group, ARIA etc.).

The research will take place mainly in Singapore, at the premises of CNRS@CREATE, with a competitive salary and generous funding for missions.

Read more about the DesCartes program here.

DESCRIPTION

The research work concerns the remote sensing demonstrator developed in the context of the DesCartes project on the use of hybrid artificial intelligence for monitoring, diagnostic and prognostic in structural mechanics in strong connection with the industrial partners: Naval Group and CETIM.

From the already performed researches in the context of Descartes involving inverse identification by data assimilation (images and acoustic spectra) for localizing localized damages (with their sizes and severities) at the laboratory scale, the present position, aims at gaining maturity to prove the validity at the semi-industrial level.

The technologies will apply on pressurized reservoirs, composites and metallic, with data and monitoring provided by the industrial partners, Naval Group and CETIM respectively. Damages, delamination in composites and corrosion in the metallic case, will be identified by using mechanical models (with the reduced model counterparts) ensuring the learning, smart-sensing by locating the adequate sensors (static and piezo-electric) in the optimal location (while minimizing the number of sensors), the real-time data assimilation and the efficient solution (by using hybrid AI) of the associated inverse problems. The integration of all these technologies will constitute the reservoir digital twin.

EXPERIENCE & QUALIFICATIONS

Minimum:

– PhD defended with post-doctoral experience in the domain of advanced simulation in structural mechanics

– Background and research experience in mechanical engineering and computational mechanics

– Experience on mechanical modelling and simulation

Keywords:

1. Structural mechanics
2. Machine learning

• Radionuclide dispersion modelling

The migration of radionuclides, in the air or water bodies (both surface and underground) will be modelled using either community dispersion models or in-house-developed codes. The aim is to enhance our understanding of how radionuclides are transported and dispersed in the environment, providing a robust foundation for further impact or consequence assessment.

• Radiological impact and dose assessment

Mathematical models or empirical approaches are employed or developed to quantitatively analyse radionuclide pathways. The radiation exposure doses, potential contamination of food or water sources are subsequently estimated. The goal is to provide reliable and practical references for emergency planning or mitigation measure implementation.

Who are we?

We are the University of Cambridge research centre in Singapore called Cambridge CARES, sponsored by the NRF CREATE program CAM.CREATE. Health-driven design for cities (HD4) is a collaborative research programme between the University of Cambridge, NTU and NUS within Cambridge CARES.

HD4 sits at the heart of Singapore’s global research and development hub and paves the way for a sustainable and healthy city. It will undertake research in the following key areas: characterising the features of the environment that potentially impact health in Singapore; understanding the links between environmental factors, individual behaviour and health outcomes; observing the impact of environmental change on health in Singapore; simulating the impact of potential changes on the health of Singaporeans; and working with government agencies to co-develop data-rich public health tools.

The scientific techniques, technologies, tools and most importantly the knowledge gained through the programme will create a comprehensive systems view of how the urban environment affects population health in Singapore. The programme will train and enrich the talent pool of next generation of researchers, and benefit from local and international expertise and an innovative interdisciplinary research ecosystem. It will provide the basis for a data-rich public health framework, supporting the development of a healthy Singapore.

Work Package 1, led by Assoc. Prof. Rudi STOUFFS (NUS) and Ronita Bardhan (Cambridge), targets the identification and assembly of existing geocoded environmental datasets and linkage to individual behaviour and health outcomes. We will use existing data to analyse the built and natural environments in Singapore and construct profiles of urban environmental exposures at both population and individual levels.
