The Chair of Soil Micro Mechanics of the Civil Engineering and Management Department at the University of Twente is seeking a full-time postdoctoral researcher (24 months) with research interests in geomechanics, geophysics, multiphysics, and multi-scale methods (e.g., discrete element method and finite element method) to join the University of Twente (Netherlands). You will work on multi-scale modeling of coupled thermo-hydro-mechanically processes in fault gouges leading to earthquake ruptures.
The post-doc position is part of the “FastSlip” project funded by the DeepNL programme of the Dutch Research Council (NWO). You will join a multidisciplinary team of leading experts in the fields of Granular Mechanics, Earth sciences, and Tribology from the University of Twente (UT) and Utrecht University (UU).
