As it was announced in the programme, this year some practical exercise sessions will be organized during the School; in order to actively and profitably participate to these practical session on numerical examples, you are requested to bring your own laptop (no additional laptops will be provided by the organisation).
The Organisers of the School built a Virtual Machine using the free (open source) VirtualBox software, which is available for all platforms: Windows, Mac and Linux. This means that all participants of the Doctoral School will be able to run the Virtual Machine we prepared on their personal laptop, regardless of their operating system. The two following two conditions must be strictly respected:

There are two PhD positions in the Geo-Engineering Section at TU Delft. The PhD projects are part of a nationally funded project which involves a large scale experiment, material (laboratory) experiments, constitutive modelling and numerical modelling. The focus is on accurately understanding the thermo-mechanical behaviour with many heat cycles during the pile lifetime.
The PhD positions are for 4 years and are fully funded. The deadline for applications is 15th October.
