A position as a PhD Research Fellow in Analysis and Design of Civil Engineering Structures at the Department Technology and Innovation is available as of 1 March 2011 for a three-year period.
The purpose of the project is to develop plasticity based models for design and strength prediction of various types of structural joints between reinforced concrete structural components such as panels and slabs. The project includes analytical and numerical studies as well as experimental investigations.
Candidates with a M.Sc. degree in civil- or structural engineering, a strong background in concrete mechanics and documented experiences in structural testing are invited to apply.
The successful applicant will be enrolled as a PhD student at the PhD School at the Faculty of Engineering within the Research Training Program of Applied Mathematical Modeling.
Appointment as a PhD Research Fellow is for three years (5+3 program). Employment stops automatically at the end of the period. The holder of the Fellowship is not allowed to have other paid employment during the period.
The successful applicant will be employed in accordance with the agreement of 1 October 2008 on salaried PhD scholars between the Ministry of Finance and AC (the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations).
The successful candidate will be enrolled at this university in accordance with faculty regulations and the Danish Ministerial Order on the PhD Program at the Universities (PhD executive order).

The College wishes to recruit an Associate Research Fellow to work on improving the understanding of interactions between hydrology, physical processes and land surface and vegetation feedbacks with a view to constraining predictions of future changes. The post is part of the HYDRA project funded under the NERC Changing Water Cycle programme and is available immediately for a fixed term period of three years.
HYDRA is a collaboration between Exeter Climate Systems at the University of Exeter, climateprediction.net at the University of Oxford, the UK Met Office Hadley Centre and CEH Wallingford. The successful applicant will work closely with Professor Peter Cox, Dr Hugo Lambert and Dr Ben Booth and will be 50% based at the UK Met Office.
The project will produce new sets of General Circulation Model (GCM) experiments that explore uncertainties associated with model formulation that influence hydrology. The simulations will be run under the climateprediction.net distributed computing architecture. The successful applicant will help to set-up and run some of the experiments and then analyse model data and observations to explore processes controlling changes the hydrological and carbon cycles. The fellow will have considerable latitude to pursue avenues in which they are interested.
Applicants must possess a PhD in climate science or a related discipline and have an interest in understanding large-scale changes in the climate system. Applicants will have the potential to carry out creative and independent research, and to publish in the peer-reviewed literature. Experience of working with complex numerical models, particularly Met Office Hadley Centre GCMs, would be an advantage.
The starting salary will be from £24,273 to £26,523 pa on Grade E, depending on knowledge, skills and experience.
