Beschreibung

For the Institute of at Hamburg University of Technology for October 1st 2023 we are looking for a:
RESEARCH ASSOCIATE (M/F/d) / WISSENSCHAFTLICHER MITARBEITER (m/w/d)

full time and limited until June 30th 2027. The remuneration is in accordance with

in the Collaborative Research Center (SFB) ""

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 C01:

Integration of components into adaptive geometries
Within this project, self-adaptive structures that control reactions based on the reactor conditions are investigated.
In the beginning, suitable unit cells and materials for selected reactions are investigated, so that structures for high heat
- and mass transport can be designed. With this, self-adapting, additive manufactured (AM) structures with temperature-controlled actuators, as well as self-adapting AM structures with pH-controlled actuators will be investigated.

Furthermore, the integration of components for in situ detection & self-adjustment into AM structures is part of the research activities.

The final step is the validation by means of experiments and CFD.

YOUR TASKS

Design and Additive Manufacturing of responsive structures made from hydrogels
Collaboration with the investigators from the project A01 of the CRC to work on the manufacturability of the hydrogels through stereolithography and fused deposition modelling, including the modification of such a printer
Material characterisations, such as rheological tests to understand fundamental manufacturing potentials and limitations
Collaboration with the investigators from the project B01 of the CRC regarding swelling and shrinking characteristics, which is needed for the tailored design of the structures regarding their selfadaptation capabilities
Investigate designmaterialcombinations that react to different stimuli

YOUR PROFILE

Prior experience in Additive Manufacturing and/or hydrogels is advantageous
Thorough understanding of polymer science
Good English language skills are required for project management and publication activities
Strong communication skills for the interaction within an interdisciplinary team

OUR OFFER

We offer you the opportunity for scientific qualification with the goal of a doctoral degree (PhD)
You will become part of a committed team
Highly innovative, dynamic technical environment with access to stateofthe Art AM technology
Opportunity to actively contribute to a topic of high relevance for society and environment and make a difference
Flexible and familyfriendly working conditions, 30 days of vacation per year
Special conditions in selected sports and fitness clubs
