At Research & Development you will be a key contributor to the next generation outstanding luxury cars from Volvo. Together with other engineers around the world, you and your team will create innovative human-centric car technology that makes life less complicated and more enjoyable for people. Are you interested in design and connected car technology? Do you share our passion for people, the environment and our urge to create a superior driving experience? Research and Development is the place for you to prosper.
As Industrial Ph.D. Candidate within the department Vehicle Dynamics and Active Safety Centre you will be a part of our post-graduate program. The intention is to develop technical specialists, secure competence supply by networking with academies, contribute to Volvo products by close connection between research, advanced engineering and car projects and contribute to Volvos reputation as high-tech & research oriented company by facilitating recruitment of highly educated personnel. The target is to develop national and international networks within strategic areas, reinforce a scientific approach within product development, initiate research projects connected to future technology and create carriers of strategic competence. The Vehicle Dynamics CAE section is actively participating in the development and verification of the vehicle by simulating the vehicle handling, steering and ride properties. The Vehicle Dynamics functions are assessed using software-in-the-loop (SIL) and we also perform real time simulations in our driving simulator.
The aim of the research project is to develop scalable virtual chassis architecture (mechanical, electrical and functional) for requirements development, product design and virtual verification of chassis mechatronic systems. This includes advanced simulation and analysis methods (modeling, system identification, sensitivity analysis, optimisation, robustness analysis, data mining, explorative testing, etc.).
Your focus will be on how to take advantage of new opportunities provided by virtual methods and how methods and models shall be developed to suit different chassis development phases in order to shorten the development time. There will be another Industrial PhD Candidate in the same project in a nearby section who you will cooperate closely with.
The first five years of employment will be dedicated to the research in co-operation with Chalmers University of Technology. The first three years (until the LicEng degree) you will be part of a network of 15 early-stage researchers in an innovative European training network - ITEAM - The Interdisciplinary Training Network in Multi-Actuated Ground Vehicles. The training network will offer extensive possibilities for training, workshops and collaboration within European academy and industry. After your PhD dissertation, you will be prepared take on a strategically important role related to the area of expertise within Research & Development of Volvo Cars.
