About the Project

The PhD project is within the broad scope of ‚Modelling for Metal Additive Manufacturing‘. There is potential to explore a range of different topics suited to the student’s interest and skillset. This may include but is not limited to

  • processing-microstructure-property relationships in metal additive manufacturing (MAM)
  • microstructure evolution under MAM conditions
  • residual stresses under MAM conditions
  • mechanical behaviour of additively manufactured materials under different types of mechanical loading (quasistatic, dynamic, fatigue)
  • thermal modelling of MAM
  • additive manufacturing process optimisation

The potential PhD candidate must have experience with simulations and programming. The topics mentioned above include model development and optimisation.
