Postdoc Position: Suction Bucket Foundations for Revetments in Deep Soft Soils

Dear Colleagues,

We are looking for an enthusiastic and accomplished postdoctoral researcher to join our team at the Computing Center for Geotechnical Engineering of Zhejiang University. The ideal candidate will have a PhD in geotechnical engineering or a related field, with a proven track record of excellence.

This project investigates bucket foundation revetments on deep soft foundations, with direct relevance to coastal infrastructure development in China. Using physical model tests, CEL large-deformation FEM, and CFD-FEM fluid-structure interaction modelling, the research will investigate suction bucket installation mechanisms, long-term bearing capacity under wave and surcharge loading, and develop a practical design method for bucket foundation revetments.
