Deadline: 23rd August 2012
Fixed Term for 3 yearsSalary Range: £32,100 - £40,720
We wish to recruit a Research Associate to undertake a 36 months research project within the Concrete Durability Group of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering based at the South Kensington campus of Imperial College London (www.imperial.ac.uk/concretedurability).
The project concerns understanding the influence of microstructure and hydration kinetics on bulk properties of concrete such as mass/ionic transport properties, shrinkage, creep, strength and elasticity. The primary objective of this project is to establish relationships between constituent materials, microstructure and bulk properties as a function of time, for concretes and exposure environments relevant to nuclear power plants.
Suitable applicants will have a PhD or equivalent experience in cement science or concrete technology. Ideally this will include characterising microstructure and measuring engineering properties and possibly multi-scale modelling of concrete.
The researcher will take a leading role in carrying out the research and co-ordinating with other researchers based at EDF R&D Materials Ageing Institute at Les Renardières, France. The researcher will be expected to participate in regular meetings and research visits within UK and France. An ability to speak French would be desirable, but is not essential.
For informal enquiries, please contact Dr Hong Wong (email: hong.wong@imperial.ac.uk, phone: +44 (0)20 7594 5956) or Professor Nick Buenfeld (n.buenfeld@imperial.ac.uk, phone: +44 (0)20 7594 5955).
Our preferred method of application is online via our website http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/employment (please select "Job Search" then enter the job title or vacancy reference number EN20120239TT into "Keywords"). Please complete and upload an application form as directed.
Alternatively, If you are unable to apply online, please contact Ms Ruth Bello (email: r.bello@imperial.ac.uk, phone: +44 (0)20 7594 6040) to request an application form, quoting reference number EN20120239TT in the request.
