The Marie Sk艂odowska-Curie doctoral training network 鈥淧REDICTOR" is made up of 22 partners. The network will recruit a total of 17 doctoral candidates for project work lasting for 36 months.

Cell-scale modelling for high-throughput screening 100 %

Winterthur

Your role
The goal of the announced doctoral thesis is to develop cell scale models of redox flow batteries. This includes a macroscopic thermodynamically consistent membrane model for integration into cell-scale models and experimental model parameterization. Interaction with other doctoral students will be important, e.g. to incorporate homogenised porous electrode models into the continuum- scale modelling framework. The doctoral thesis will also focus on developing an industrial application for the redox flow battery models.

Your profile

• In accordance with the European Union's funding rules for doctoral networks, applicants must NOT yet have a PhD
• The applicant must not have resided or carried out her/ his main activity (work, studies etc.) in Switzerland for more than 12 months in the past 3 years.
• Excellent master's degree in computational science, physics, mathematics, engineering, or a related discipline
• Familiarity with mathematical modelling and numerical methods for ordinary and partial differential equations
• Experience in modelling and simulation of physical- and/or chemical- processes based on thermodynamics
• Strong interest in working in a cross-disciplinary, collaborative project at the interface of electrochemistry and mathematical modelling
• Experience in at least one programming language for scientific computing (C/C++, Matlab, Wolfram Language (Mathematica), Python, Julia, ...)
• Good communication skills and willingness to work in collaborative projects with multiple partners and present results at conferences, project meetings and partners
• Very good English language skills (German is beneficial)
• Self-motivation and the ability to achieve goals independently as well as to contribute effectively to the team
