Job description
The Structural Integrity and Composites group of Delft
University of Technology, in cooperation with BOSAL Emission Control
Systems N.V., has created a new, patented concept for lightweight
automotive exhaust systems. The trajectory from idea to
proof-of-principle has been completed. However, significant research
efforts are needed to achieve the status of a production-ready system.
Issues like geometric design (for a specific automobile), packagging,
structural properties, vibrations, acoustic performance, durability,
homologation issues, production methods and organisation, logistic
aspects and quality control need appropriate attention. The
multidisciplinary character of this research topic will lead at the end
of the project (4 years) to a PhD degree. The project is financed by IWT
(Belgian Governmental Agency for Innovation by Science and Technology)
and BOSAL (a major OEM for automotive parts). The candidate is expected
to conduct research at both TU Delft's Department of Aerospace
Engineering and the BOSAL R&D department in Lummen, Belgium.
Requirements
For this position, applicants should have an MSc in Mechanical
or Aerospace Engineering or Applied Physics as well as an affinity for
automotive research and static/dynamic and acoustic modelling.
Applicants should be prepared to conduct practical activities like
prototyping and testing. Proficiency in English is required; a knowledge
of Dutch is an asset.
Conditions of employment
TU Delft offers an attractive benefits package, including a flexible work week, free high-speed Internet access from home (with a contract of two years or longer), and the option of assembling a customised compensation and benefits package (the 'IKA'). Salary and benefits are in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities.For more information about this position, please contact Dr. S. Koussios, phone: +31 (0)15-2788164, e-mail: S.Koussios@tudelft.nl.
