The project consortium includes Modelon AB, Technical University Berlin, University of Nottingham and ABB AB. The work is carried out in collaboration with DLR, ONERA, Airbus, Delft University and NLR.
The research focuses on the development and application of a conceptual design platform for analysis and optimization of turbo-electric propulsion systems aimed at future environmentally-friendly aircraft. The work will be based one existing in-house simulation tools (EVA and OpenEVA) as well as systems available at the partner organizations. The focus of the project will be on aero applications, although the methods proposed could easily be applied in other gas turbine applications such as marine propulsion.
In addition to the research duties within the TRADE project, you will contribute in the SOFIA research group with:
• Active engagement in research, developing a distinct line of research through new independent research projects.
• Actively contributing to education on all levels.
• Supervising masters and doctoral students.
• Applying for suitable external research funding.
• Participating in joint departmental and university-wide undertakings.
• Participating in international collaborations on a high scientific level.
• Collaborating with research groups within and outside of MDH.
The position is meritorious for future employment. It shall include teaching at second cycle level both within your core competence and on a more general level, as well as administrative and management duties (up to 20-30%).
The position is a temporary employment of 2 years with a possibility of extension for another 2 years.
At the time the position starts the applicant is required to have a PhD degree in a relevant field such as Mechanical Engineering, Energy Engineering, Electrical Engineering or Aerospace Engineering. You should be able to demonstrate research and pedagogical skills within the subject area. Further reference is made to the Higher Education Ordinance section 4 and Appointments Procedure for teachers at Mälardalen University.
The position requires sound verbal and written communication skills in English.
The school will select the most suitable candidate for this position following a combined evaluation of competence and skills, in addition to documented qualifications. Decisive importance is attached to personal suitability. Personal suitability will be judged in relation to the candidate's capacity to effectively carry out the project research work, to integrate and contribute to a positive development of the research environment at MDH, as well as deliver value to the TRADE project's partner organizations.
