Your role

The PhD-student (Doctoral Researcher) will work under the guidance of a professor on a research theme and will also contribute to education in a certain extent. The person should finish the work with a doctoral degree in engineering science.

The foreseen research is through the ArcelorMittal Chair of Steel Construction, under the collaboration between the University of Luxembourg and ArcelorMittal. This research project focuses on the non-destructive assessment of structural steel products mechanical properties for reuse in a circular economy and works at the steel material level by using destructive- and nondestructive test and measurement methods. These procedures target the assessment of steel properties for reuse in a new construction. Besides experimental work in the laboratory, machine learning will be employed to develop the steel properties predicting models to make more feasible use of nondestructive measurements on site.
