Dr. Davide Noè Gorini, Assistant Professor at the University of Trento, and Prof. Marco Broccardo, Associate Professor at the University of Trento, are seeking two highly motivated Postdoctoral Researchers to join their research group on Multi-Physics Analysis, Design and Assessment of Energy Infrastructural Networks. More information can be found in the attached document.
Prof. Oreste Bursi, Full Professor at the University of Trento (Italy), and Dr. Davide Noè Gorini, Assistant Professor at the University of Trento, are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join their research group on Hazard protection of Civil Engineering Structures.
More information can be found in the attached document.
The research will be conducted collaboratively at INRIA-TRIPOP and INRAE-ECRINS. The PhD position offers an exciting opportunity to tackle complex problems at the intersection of granular physics and artificial intelligence, to enhance the understanding, modelling, and predictive capabilities in the context of natural gravitational hazards. The role provides extensive opportunities to develop expertise and skills for career paths in both academic research and industry. The appointment is for a duration of three years and contingent upon a pending research grant.
