PhD or Postdoc in Multiscale Simulation on the DEM simulation of 3D printing process

The Institute for Multiscale Simulation at the FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg offers a PhD position on the DEM Simulation of 3D printing process

PhD or Postdoc in Multiscale Simulation on the DEM simulation of 3D printing process

Das Aufgabengebiet umfasst u. a.

At the MSS, we investigate the multiscale physics of particulate systems. The MSS hosts an interdisciplinary research team with a unique combination of scientists working numerically, theoretically and exprimentally.

The aim of the project is to derive optimal strategies for the raking process in powder bed 3D printing by means of DEM simulations . This includes the investigation of the
flow behavior of fine powders under consideration of realistic material parameters as well as realistic particle shapes and system geometries. The required large scale
particle simulations will be conducted in close collaboration with experimental work at the FAU. The project is embedded in the stimulating environment of the
Collaborative Research Center 814 ¡§Additive Manufacturing¡¨ of the German Research Foundation.

Notwendige Qualifikation

master's degree in physics or related


background in computational physics


programming skills (e.g. C++, Python, Matlab)


experience in particle simulations (DEM)

Bemerkungen
