PhD Position – Inverse Design of Microstructures for Novel Sustainable Structural Metals

Shaping change: this is what drives us at Forschungs­zentrum Jülich. As a member of the Helmholtz Association with some 7,600 employees, we conduct interdisciplinary research into a digitalized society, a climatefriendly energy system, and a sustainable economy. We focus on the natural, life, and engineering sciences in the fields of information, energy, and bioeconomy. We combine this with expertise in high‑performance computing and artificial intelligence using unique scientific infrastructures. The development of complex materials with tailored properties, as well as the understanding of the underlying mechanisms require reliable highthroughput simulation tools, that can be combined with data analytics and material characterization. This will allow us to predict the structureproperty relation and to understand and evaluate experimentally obtained data sets. As a PhD student you will work at the Institute for Advanced Simulations – Materials Data Science and Informatics (IAS-9) that combines data analysis, materials simulation, research data management and software development under one roof. It also benefits from a strong connection to the Ernst-Ruska-Centre
